Mint is one of those herbs that grows so easily that there is just no point in buying it. A word of warning though, if you do buy a mint plant my advice is to put it in its own pot/container because if not, it will likely take over your garden!
I love mint sauce on pork pies & mushy peas, meat & potato pie and of course with most lamb dishes…And don’t forget, having your own plant means you’ve always got the Pimms covered!
