Introduction

Mint is a great herb to grow in your garden, but it can be hard to keep it contained. Mint grows in a mound shape that's difficult to contain when planted alone. To prevent your mint from taking over, plant it in pots or other containers where its roots are restricted. You can also prune off any unwanted growths to keep your mint manageable and prevent it from growing too large for its space. Mint likes lots of water and plenty of sun, so don't be afraid to give your plant lots of both!



Mint likes lots of water and plenty of sun.

Mint is a perennial plant and can be grown in a pot on your patio. It likes lots of water and plenty of sun. Mint is also a good companion plant for other plants, so it's great to grow in your garden or flowerbeds.

Plant mint in a pot to keep it from growing strongly.

Mint is a strong-growing herb, so it will spread quickly if not contained. This makes it important to grow mint in a container rather than directly in the ground. If you choose to grow it in the ground, you must make sure that the soil is well drained and loose so that the plant doesn't have problems with water retention or root rot. Mint does best when planted in pots or planters because they keep it from taking over too much space around your home or garden area. The potting soil should be kept loose and well-drained; if there are any spots where water can collect (even after watering), they should be filled with pebbles or gravel to prevent root rot from occurring on those areas of exposed roots.

Mint plants need regular watering throughout their growing season—especially during hot summer days—to maintain healthy growth rates throughout their life cycle.
