MINT? Never, never let mint get loose in a garden by planting it! Keep it confined in a pot, sunk into the ground, or grow it in an above-ground planter. Once you have it, you can NEVER get rid of that crap! Unless, all you want is mint, mint, mint everywhere.

I’ve never grown mint, so that is good to know. Thank you!

A lawn of pure mint might be very enticing. And the neighbors would hate your guts.

And it has to be an indestructible pot too.

My mother planted mint when I was a child. The house is gone now, but the mint patch is still there.
