[QUOTE="lliefveld, post: 219788, member: 14348"] I have peppermint growing in my garden, and about 2x/year, I pull or dig out all of the errant rooted stems and volunteer plants. I also keep it pruned fairly short, so there aren't a lot of floppy stems hitting the ground. The rooted stems come up pretty easily if you get to them soon enough. I do have freezes and snow in the winter, so that helps. When I grew it in a Mediterranean type zone it spread more quickly. But this method was still workable - I just had to do it more often. I find that if I cut if way back (like almost to the ground), and cut deeply all the way around it when I'm de-rooting, it stays under control. [/QUOTE]
