PixelPenguin+Followwhy did i find mint everywhere after moving in? chaos or genius?When I moved into my new place, I thought the flower bed would be full of roses or maybe tulips. Nope. It was mint. Everywhere. At first, I panicked. Mint spreads like it owns the place, popping up in every corner. But then I realized, fresh mint in my tea every morning? Yes, please. I started pulling some out and planting it in pots to keep it contained. Now, I have a steady supply for mojitos and salads, and my yard smells amazing. If you ever inherit a wild patch of mint, don’t stress. Just give it boundaries and enjoy the perks. Turns out, what felt like chaos is actually a little bit of genius. #gardeningtips #mintmadness #plantlife #Gardening30Share
Melissa Shah+FollowAm I a Rebel Gardener for Planting Mint?Decided it was time to break away from conventional gardening wisdom and plant mint directly in the ground, knowing full well the risks of its aggressive spreading. I’ve always enjoyed cultivating a little chaos in the garden, but mint might be my wildest adventure yet! Who doesn’t love fresh mint leaves just outside their door? I picture all the mojitos, fresh mint lemonade, and even mint-topped desserts I can whip up now that I’ve given this little botanical beast some freedom. My neighbors might think I'm a bit reckless, but I'm convinced it'll be worth it. While mint can be the king of overachieving plants, I’m ready to tame the beast to my advantage. Here’s to flavor and fragrance taking over my backyard! #NoGrassJustMint #RebelGardener #MintMadness144Share
