I mean its working, every plant useful to humans is being given the right to stay with us.

Well, at least until we meet our eventual demise by hyper-abusing our environment, yeah..

Mint is a pretty sturdy plant, it can grow in a variety of climates and even get a bit invasive at times. Among the domesticated plants, it might be one of those with the best chance to still strive after humans disappear.

many consider it a weed. always make sure to plant your mint in a pot (even if you want it in your garden just bury the pot with a little bit of the edge sticking out), do not plant it directly in dirt, though if you do, you'll never again not have mint in your garden! and your neighbours' gardens too! :D
