If this mint is really dead, not just defoliated or a few stems dead, or
even all stems above ground dead, but dead down to the roots, then you've
just solved a major gardening problem for anyone who has ever tried to
eradicate mint once planted in the garden. Kudos if so. Please report
back when it is certain the mint is gone gone gone. (I love mint, I'm just
asking for the sake of knowledge).
