Hi Christofer, yes, mint does too well.  I could ship you a garden load
and still have lots to spare.
I also have lots of chives and ever-bearing strawberries, but found parsley 
and dill did poorly.  So much for my pickles. (grin) Oh well I will just have 
to keep trying and experimenting. 
 CG> And potatoes. They are supposed to be great at conditioning soil.
I have never tried potatoes since I do not have much room.  However, my
tomatoes came up from seed when I started some plants the year before so
I guess anything is possible.
I have also found many bulbs work well.
