Hello everyone:

I am new to this forum. I. Am growing a spearmint plant indoors and I noticed that some of the leaves are getting yellow and rusty looking. Also, some of the newer branches are turning. Yellow and drying up. Is this normal? It is my first time growing this plant.

Yellow leaves are often a sign of too much water. Not enough sun doesn't help the plant either. Do you have some place outdoors this plant can be?

I bet it's out-grown its small pot!
