The previous owner of this house planted mint in the ground around this site over 12 years ago and it keeps coming back. It’s not taking over or anything but it persistently pops up here and there. Just amazing how hardy and well adapted to this site it is. Wish everything was this easy to grow :)
Tanacious Mint Their first album (Hard Clay Life) is a banger
Can’t you see they’re the mint, there they are in the dirt, they are more than a weed they’re a hardy urban herb.
Hell yeah, I’m rooting for that mint.
I thought I killed a potted mint plant. By all appearances it was dead. I threw it in the big leaf and garden waste pile I have on the outskirts of my property. Lo and behold, it is thriving out there this year.
We have a mint of unknown origin and it basically didn’t do anything for months because it was too cold. Now that it’s warmer it’s starting to take off and provide some nice leaves for drinks.

Yeah, strawberries propagate readily here too! My wife grew some in pots only to find they jumped the pots and colonized all around.
Mint doesn’t die, it just takes a little nap before coming back even stronger.
I planted some in my grass last year and while I’m happy with the results I’m a little worried I’ll hate myself for it on 5 or 6 years. It smells like heaven when I mow that one spot though.
Oh wow I can only imagine. I have rosemary growing as a hedge and it goes crazy here. The times I’ve had to trim large amounts of it have also been verrrry fragrant!
