Mint!

How to Grow
Mint will grow well in full sun to partial shade and can easily take over a garden, crowding out other plants. For this reason, it is better to plant mint in a separate garden bed or plant it in containers above ground. Space plants two feet apart. Frequent cutting will promote branching. Propagate by dividing clumps.

Harvesting
Just prior to flowering, cut stems one inch above the soil. You may harvest mint two or three times in one growing season.
