Put the mint on concrete. If the roots get through the pot into the dirt, you’ll have mint forever, it tends to take over. Spite plant it if you get evicted. Keep the mint in a pot, a big one if needs be, but a pot.
Yay! I’m really happy to see how you’re going with your foray into gardening. That mint is absolutely going ham, before you know it you’ll be needing to transplant it. May everything continue to prosper and give you joy :)
Looking excellent! Almost time to tip prune the mint (and use the prunings for something!) to keep it bushy with lots of sprigs. Rosemary takes longer to grow - really really likes sunshine - so it all looks good.
Turkish style mint tea … so yum in hot or cold weather. Fresh mint smashed up with basil & parsley for pesto to mix into in spaghetti - lots of lovely options. Mint juleps!!! I have to admit I go through a lot of mint in summer in the form of juleps.

It all looks thriving!
My parsley is still a bit fainted but hopefully it recovers soon
