Attack of the mint

A couple of years back, i planted a lone mint plant in our side yard. Little did I now that it was the beginning of a 'hard to get-rid' of problem. Next year when spring was around the corner I started noticing mont not just in the one spot but several and it just bigger and bigger. I tried several times to get them out completely but of course their roots are all over and they came back with more force the next year. This time I decided that rather than trying to unsuccessfully uprooting them, I would just attack them back or rather embrace them into my home. So last week Rhea and I pulled a whole bunch of them and put them in a vase with some colored pebbles. Such a pretty sight!
