Mint has a tendency to die off when it gets too dry, then pop up again when there is rainfall. I've had mint growing feral in the lawn that would appear to completely disappear over summer, then pop up again overnight when conditions suited it better.

Planters are tough, and gardening in general involves a lot of stuff dying - being a good gardener is often a matter of persevering when things go wrong more than getting things right.
