It strangles the other plants. And the underground root growth means it's really hard to get rid of after it breaks containment.

Personally? Gravel, tar, some cancerous chemicals holding the two together...

Wait then why not just let the mint grow?

I think there's been a misunderstanding. I don't have anywhere to grow anything unless it's in pots. I'm talking about mint generally, and why people don't like it growing in ground versus in pots.

Yep! It also spreads like a weed.
