I was promised this when I planted mint in ground at my 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.
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?”
Explain yourself right this instant young man!
Unless all you want to harvest is mint, it’s not a good idea to plant mint in the ground. It takes over the whole field.

I have also experienced this tragedy. But not before discovering that a little catnip gives mojitos a nice flavor
Since I do not enjoy being randomly attacked, I don’t mess with their stash.
weeds hate this one trick
Wow this grows really well!

How the hell did the mint get over there

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

That’s why I only plant horseradish!
Mint grows as hard as grass and weeds. Once you plant mint all you have is more mint
Mint grows better than grass, as it’s well suited for the environments most people try to grow grass. Which are environments not well suited for it.
Well I copied the yard we already had, but I let the mint run wild. Also I think the racing stripes I added here and here look pretty sharp.
