I heard your not supposed to plant them next to each other in a garden. I think I'm going to switch them to pots. Yours look really nice and I'm tired of fighting with mine to keep them contained! As for the tabbouleh, you can't use mint, it does taste nasty. You need to use spearmint. A friend of mine is Lebanese and he said all of their dishes use spearmint not peppermint :) I love mint.

Good luck if you decide to move it. Some of my mints, like the orange mint for example, are so aggressive that the runners have "jumped pot" before and rooted themselves into their neighboring containers!

It's still me -- Jane Marie. I need to follow your example an get all of my mints in containers. Some are and others are not. The chocolate mint is taking over the place. "When I am time" before winter sets in, I plant to rearrange my herbs garden. It's time for a shake up. It's probably too late for the mints. Once they're there, that's where they keep coming up, year after year. I’m visitng you today from my other blog called An Herbal Bedfellow. It’s still me — Jane Marie.
