Hi, I have mint plants and this is the first year that my mint has flourished and lived for many months. I want to protect them as it gets colder but I can't bring them inside because I lack space near any lighted areas. I thought about a mini sheltered greenhouse but I live about 20 feet from the bay and it gets really cold when the wind comes off the water.

Doesn't mention anything about problems. I've bought 3 plants this year and all the leaves go silver and brown and die within weeks. No idea what to do.

how long would it take a single mint plant to spread about 8 feet

What do you do when it gets rust spots, which is susceptible to the mint family?

This is my 2nd attempt to grow mint, and twice it just dried up & died....what could have happened?????

Thanks alot for the explanation Bob

this was VERY helpful! THANKS!

On Pinterest, I learned that if you cut the bottom off of a large nursery pot ( the cheap flimsy ones) and burry that in the ground, it serves as an excellent "spreading boarder"

As a southern Californian amateur gardener, the greatest problem I have with mint right now is grasshoppers. But back when I just started growing it, it started to aparently die off, however this may have been due to poor soil conditions, overwatering, and improper sun conditions.

What kills mint? Snails? I cannot grow mint in northern California.
