  I was promised this when I planted mint in ground atbmy old house, and sure enough, the mint took hold. Alas, my insatiable appetite for mojitos was too much demand for the mint to sustain and I eradiacted it through overharvesting.

    I have also experienced this tragedy. But not before discovering that a little catnip gives mojitos a nice flavor

    No joke we have a few pots of different mints growing by the trash cans for any unpleasant odors

  Oooh. I knew this but for some reason my brain went from “Th ground? Like soil?” to “if I’m not supposed to grow it in a pot of soil, am I meant to grow it on some sort of trellis setup?”
