Julie Chai, associate garden editor of Sunset magazine, warns gardeners that they should keep mint plants in containers or pots, lest the herb take over the entire garden. Once your mint starts to overwhelm your container, you'll need to take it out, divide it, and replant it. Share the extra mint with your cocktail-drinking friends.

  • I just started my big gardening venture by buying a mint plant. I put it in a pot with a mix of potting soil and mulch. I've been watering it everyday. Sure likes water. Should I be giving it some kind of store-bought nutrients? What about sun? I'm leery about the So Cal sun frying it. Suggestion? Thanks, Russ
