Cut a healthy stem from an established mint plant, making sure to include at least one set of leaves and a node (the point where leaves grow).
Place the cutting in a jar with water, ensuring the node is submerged while the leaves remain above the water line.
Change the water every few days to keep it fresh.
In about 1-2 weeks, roots should start to form. Once the roots are about 1-2 inches long, you can transplant the cutting into a pot with soil.
Keep the potted plant in a sunny location, and water it regularly.
Tip: Mint cuttings root very easily and grow quickly. This method is a great way to propagate mint without much effort.
