Well I got my garden planted yesterday. My wife sure appreciates me getting
all my plant trays out of her way. I even have a pepper on one of my plants
already. Its a Malibu Purple and I have to nominate this plant and pepper as
the nicest looking plant I have in the garden. Nice defined dark
green-purple leaves, purple and white flowers and a purple pepper. First
year I have grown them and they already look like a hit. Here is a mint
planting tip I just saw:
Planting Mint
If you love mint in your herb garden, but don't want it to take over, try
this technique. Plant the mint plant in a plastic pot, or a tub with its
bottom removed, and plant the pot in the ground so only the pot lip is
showing. This will help keep it from invading the rest of the garden.
