@rhsanborn Haha! Everyone says mint is easy to grow, but I've been trying for months.None of my seeds sprouted and only one of the cuttings a neighbor gave me lived. It's not even growing that fast now that it's established and in a pot with good soil.

@grammargirl Good luck! We love fresh mint but it escaped our boxed in garden. It just smells extra nice when we mow now.

@rhsanborn @grammargirl I was about to say something like that with words, but a picture is a thousand words. Well said.Where I live, mint is an invasive weed.

@grammargirl @rhsanborn If you think you can keep them in a pot, well, good luck with that. They have spread to my entire garden and all my beds are raised. I think they make seeds that spread on the wind. I'm constantly tearing them out.But they smell nice and -- well, mint juleps.🤷🏻♀️🥃

@grammargirl That's a good one, too. Best mojito I ever had was in a martini bar in downtown Flagstaff, AZ. That bartender had it down to a science.

@mlanger @rhsanborn Wow. Based on everyone's comments, I'm planning on moving the pot off the dirt and onto the patio, but it sounds like even that may not be enough once it gets going.

@grammargirl @rhsanborn Maybe where you live it won’t be as bad?

@grammargirl I love *Melissa officinalis. *Superb aroma and it is a mild sedative.
