It's best to plant these into their own, large containers to avoid any chaos, and sink a large pot into the ground if you're looking to grow your mint directly in the ground as this will constrict the roots and stop them from taking over entirely.

Apple Mint is certainly one of those varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt grows and spreads with vigour. Honestly, this plant doesn’t stand on ceremony. You will invite it into your garden and before you know it, this plant will be growing everywhere. It might be an idea to keep this contained, unless of course you would like to throw a massive party and need a huge supply of Mint for cocktails. It will grow happily in moist soil. Keep cutting it back to promote healthy fresh growth and perhaps divide it later in the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn terms of flavour, the apple element comes through subtly, but it absolutely tastes fruity which is really fun. It is extremely versatile, great when used in traditional culinary applications, as a seasoning for meat, desserts or even used in drinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe think it looks cool too, with the leaves looking very solid and present, making Apple Mint perhaps more architectural than other mint varieties.
