To transplant into a garden container and to prevent it from taking over a garden bed, use well-draining soil. Give your plant plenty of rooting space and keep the soil moist but not soggy.

Keep your plant in a container since the roots run ramped and quickly take over a garden. Prune in the morning when the essential flavors are higher. You can trim leaves off the stem when the plant reaches six to eight inches long. After the first frost in the fall, cut the dead leaves and stems back and it will sprout back in the spring.

To propagate this plant during the growing season: Take a 4-6 inch stem cutting in the early spring. Use a knife or sharp pruners, cut below a node where there are at least three leaves. Remove the bottom leaves to expose the node. Place the stem in a glass jar and fill it with filtered water and watch the roots grow! Replace and freshen the water each week. After the roots are six weeks old, add the cuttings to moistened potting soil, continue to water, and give it the bright, indirect lighting requirements.
