Mint is a wonderful distinctive herb with a fresh aroma, it is easily grown in any garden, you can get a small plant from garden centres, supermarkets, on line plant sellers or ask a friend for a cutting. Plant in a sunny position, in good weed free, well drained soil, but be carful, mint is very invasive, if left alone it will spread and pop up all over the garden, what I do is to cut the bottom off a old bucket, dig a hole a 'plant' the bucket, then plant the mint in the bucket, that stops it spreading.

The best way is to take a small cutting including some root from an established mint plant and plant the cutting in compost or soil in a pot, planter or garden, water it in and watch it grow.

What does a stem do to help the plant?

The stem of the venus' fly trap is extremely short. The plant's leaves grow from the stem, as any other plant's leaves do. The plant, though, does not grow tall and the stem is just below ground level, much the same as a dandelion. When the plant is ready to flower, it sends up a flower stalk (which is a stem) about 4-6 inches. The benefit to the plant is that the stalk raises the flowers high where insects are more likely to polinate them. Once the seeds are mature, the flower stalk serves as a catapult of sorts to scatter seeds when the wind blows.

From the roots. All plant parts are grown for a reason, first the seeds are planted, the seeds are for starting the plant and for producing more, next the roots grow,the roots are for collecting food and minerals, next the stem sprouts, the stem is for guiding the foods and minerals to the entire plant, then the leaves sprout, the leaves soak up sun and oxygen for the plant to live, last but not least the produce comes out [you know what that's for].
