Notes

Date approximate. Planted in a container on a north-facing balcony.

After an OMG-too-much mint experience, we resisted growing it for years, but finally gave in. We do our best to neglect it, and it still grows like a weed.

2015-01-25: Took a few cuttings in the hopes of planting one in a smaller pot and then retiring the original larger plant.

2015-05-16: Finally got cuttings that are doing well. Working on retiring the mint as fast as we can eat it.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
