Why We Love Mint (And You Should, Too!)

                       

Whenever you hear the word mint, many good and few bad things may come to your mind. That's right! Mint has bad reputation for no reason. which is , mint is of predatory nature and takes over the garden from other plants. It spreads so fast that within few months you will see mint every where in your garden.
                                         

You can take care of this problem very easily. Just don't grow mint near the other plants. You can sow mint in abandoned places where you cant grow much or cant use that place otherwise.

Mint grows very fast, that means you can harvest as much as you want. If you cut too much of mint ,still it will grow back. means you can have unlimited supply of mint for your kitchen at no cost.
                     

Mint grows really well in shades. So you can grow in verandas or by the walls where you can grow other plants due to absence of sun light. so all of those shady places which are neglected and doesn't look good because of no greenery , Mint is the best solution. It will make those places green and alive.
