Hi Rickyvic1
To keep the best and avoid the worst of mint, plant it in pots anywhere you want. Just watch for those trailers that flop to the ground to keep it from spreading. While mint has a lot of benefits, it really is an invasive plant. I ended up having to kill it to stop it from completely overtaking my garden. :( Wishing you the best.
