I have the opposite problem to Janice with her unwanted mint. I have
tubs of mint and parsley I would like to grow on next year, as I am
particularly pleased with them. How do I over winter them ? They are
a bit big to come indoors.
The mint can just be left out, and comes very well from spring root
cuttings, which helps keep mint rust at bay. Chop healthy-looking roots into
2" lengths and bury horizontally about 1" deep.
As said, parsley does very badly for foliage in its second (seeding) year.
