Growing mint, transplant a tesco potted plant ?

ok. will it kill my old plants then ?

 

Yes, I reckon it will. It will grow amongst them, is reasonably tall (knee high), will grow stronger than your regular garden plants, and if it exclude the light from them I reckon they will give up at worst, or at best you just won't be able to see them!

 

you mean the mint will grow bigger than my trees ? is that what you meant ?

 

What part of:

" is reasonably tall (knee high)"

did you not understand?

 

Go plant your mint. It will give you something to do in years to come trying to get rid of it

 

Mint is so prolific it grows shoots out of the bottom of a pot and can do the same thing under water :wink:

 

:lollol::lollol::lollol:

 

Nevermind, Ill put it in a pot .

Anyway, theres this plant in my garden thats begun to take over, I found 30 of it coming up. Ill post pics soon. Any idea what it could be though ? It looks weird looking and quite exotic.

 

Without pics it could be ANYTHING!

 

Poor confused Fuggles! The accepted way to plant mint is in a pot, sunk into the soil so the roots are contained. In that way it gets the benefit of being in the ground and you get the benefit of it not taking over your garden!:gnthb:

okay, i was walking down the street and found this berry looking thing, what is it ? I thought rose hip.














Anyway, here are pictures of my garden. Its quite big, just a regular garden though in terms of what it has in it. random trees and grass. Could I turn it into a mint farm ?









Some cape gooseberry sprouted in paper towel then transferred to peat pellet.




Heres a strange plant that I have no idea where it came from, I counted 30 of them !!













Also, I planted lots of cape gooseberrys in peat pellets in the garden but someone dug them all up, a bird presumably ? fox or a cat ? I am growing them indoors now.

 

i posted pics of it , what is it ? It wasnt planted by anyone

 

Some sort of a fern.
