I am trying to make a little herb garden,I am trying to decide if I should plant Peppermint, Spearmint, or mint……Thank~you for looking at my question.

I have a bad cough and nasal congestion. My sister has a lot of mint in her garden… does anyone know any mixes or drinks that can be made with mint to relieve my symtoms somewhat naturally? Thanks!

I have a neighbor who planted a little pot of mint in her herb garden a couple years ago and the mint took over the whole garden and she tried several attempts to try to get rid of it all but it keeps coming back what would be the best way to get rid of it once and for all.
She has tried to root it all up and also tried burning it all. but it came back! help.

I live in in Phoenix AZ and really want my backyard full of beautiful plants, mainly flowers & herbs. With little kids around I don’t want cactus or poisonous plants. I know I’ll have aloe vera, rosemary and mint.
Most of the yard gets little shade (late afternoon only). What kind of plants should I plant & when? I hate killing them all the time I have the opposite of a green thumb. Help Desert Gardeners!!!!!!!!

She has a cold and herbal tea usually helps. She drinks plain chamomile tea sometimes but I have a new kind called "Sweet Dreams" and it contains mint (peppermint and spearmint), chamomile, hibiscus, orange blossom, and rose blossoms. Is this safe?

I have alot of chamomille, mint, and strawberries in my garden.
I’d like to try a variety of teas. If you have recipe’s or know of a website I can look at, that would be great!
