I cannot think of anyone that does not like mint - in the garden or in a container.
The container way, is better as mint can take over the garden bed if not kept in check.
There are so many uses for this versatile herb - steep it in boiling water to make a tea, pop some into your glass of water with some lemon juice and cucumber slices for a refreshing drink, use when cooking peas, pop some into your bath and soak up that lovely fragrance, make your own delicious mint sauce to serve with that roast lamb, use it as a garnish to ice cream dishes - the list goes on and on.
However, another way that I like to use this wonderful herb is to pick a whole bunch and then put it into a small vase in the bathroom - that lovely fresh, minty smell as you walk into the room is really great.
