The trick is never to let it out of its pot!<BR/><BR/>BobbieBNShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10709074385552082635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372661752347661223.post-60141556990427235442008-08-26T22:27:00.000-06:002008-08-26T22:27:00.000-06:00Around here gardeners hate it, which is silly from...Around here gardeners hate it, which is silly from my point of view. You can harvest and dry the leaves to make really good tea.

He really enjoys gardening and looking after all of our flowers, vegetables and fruit trees.

It did make an interesting Ruby Tuesday post on your blog, though.<BR/><BR/>@ Kathy - Oh, I know exactly what you mean. From time to time tendrils of our potted mint flow over the side and attempt to root in the ground beside the pot. We have to trim them back constantly. Funny how some plants are like that. You just can't let them out of their pots or you're done for!

Mint will quickly take over any place it is planted in. I mistakenly planted an applemint variety - it's furry and doesn't make a nice tea or potpourri at all. I have been yanking those thick roots out of my garden for over 10 years! I think the more I break their roots, the more plants I make -I'm doomed! On the other hand a have a beautiful little cocoa-mint, for the same number of years, and it refuses to spread. Go figure!kmlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00782946391673845914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372661752347661223.post-75202365820257640942008-07-24T02:23:00.000-06:002008-07-24T02:23:00.000-06:00Hello!

It really has to be applied just right or it definitely looks like you've been rubbing your eyes! :) (I think you have to keep it on your upper lid and avoid any red getting below your eye and it won't look too bad!) :)<BR/>Hope you're having a great week!<BR/>- Elise<BR/><BR/>P.S. At my old house, we had mint growing in our backyard! I always loved the smell of it.Elise B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15389560216504936137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372661752347661223.post-48132215239514773432008-07-23T12:43:00.000-06:002008-07-23T12:43:00.000-06:00Hi Ryanne - I would love to see -- and smell -- a ...Hi Ryanne - I would <I>love</I> to see -- and smell -- a whole field of mint!
