How to grow
Vietnamese mint has a creeping habit and has potential to spread in warmer tropical climates where it may be best grown in a pot. Provide protection against the hot afternoon sun, especially in hot, dry areas. In cooler climates, protect from frost. Water regularly and cut back in late autumn as plants begin to die down.
