Why is my mint so “bald?” I always see everyone else’s and it’s full and lots of leaves but mine is naked. Is there something I’m doing wrong? I was looking at old pictures and he used to be really full….I’m confused! Thanks in advance!

    My mint is bushy because I pinch back all the flower buds. I don’t allow it to flower (in a very bright/dappled sun area). If it has flowered and maybe you didn’t notice, this could be the reason. It is possible to rejuvenate by cutting the top growth every now and then. Otherwise go down the list and see if you’ve met or need to change any of its requirements, ie. soil or morning sun.
