Am I right in thinking you can split a mint plant?

[MrsWho]

and how would you do it?

TIA

Mint? mint?

ha ha, I have just ripped a load out today, grows like bloomin wild fire!

IME mint grows like a week - just dig up a clump with some roots and replant elsewhere

grows like a weed

ain't that the truth

a real spreader - I flippin hate the stuff!

I have just started growing it in pots - my mother brought me some bare rooted clumps from her garden and it has all taken.

Its in a pot just want to split it so my Mam can have some.
