Mint

[Missa]

I didn't know mint was like this when I planted it. I put it in with some cannas. The mint has gone nuts & I don't see any sign of life from the cannas.
Could the mint have caused this or did the cannas just maybe die? We did have a bad ... cold, wet, snow, ice .... winter this year & where the cannas are it can stay pretty wet.

Don't know what your weather is like, but here in zone 5, cannas have to be dug every year.
Yes, mint is invasive but I still like, especially when you have a little patch growing out into the grass and mow it every week............it smells wonderful!

Mint is very invasive and if you want it in an herb bed I'd suggest planting in a container.  It sends out runners underground and will take over lesser plants.  Cannas in my zone are not hardy.
