A weed is something you don’t want to grow right there. It just means undesired plant life and changes on a whim.
Monsanto tried to categorize clover as weeds in their advertising because the plant killer that was used to kill broadleaf plants that interfere with grass lawns also kills clover. They demonized clover because it was collateral damage!
Clover and grass benefit each other in my experience, especially because clover fixes nitrogen. Wherever we have clover, the grass is visibly happier and tends to be hardier to adversity.
The bur seed clover in my lawn, shits a nightmare to deal with. Dogs get the seeds in every inch of fur, spread it around the lawn and hack them up when grooming themselves.
It’s mostly under control after a few years of tackling it.
I’d love another variant to replace the horrible one I’ve got.
But that isn’t the clover we are talking about when we say clover is awesome. White clover is generally what people are referring to when they are talking about lawns and landscaping.
I grow my mint along the side of the house where the HVAC condensation runs out! It helps with the whole area just being a giant muddy mess since it is also on the shady side of the house.
It’s not weed, it’s that mint is very aggressive in spreading.
I personally like the mint growing in the yard it makes mowing the lawn smell great.
Oh, so it’s not weed, but it’s a weed.
Not weed if you can make mojitos with it
It can still be a weed if you can’t make enough mojitos to keep up with the growth.
Challenge accepted
Are we talking Weed Mojitos? M’confusted?
Weed as a classification is bullshit anyway. Iirc, it’s whatever broad-leaf plants got killed by roundup, Monsanto declared ‘weeds’.
Clover used to be a common part of American lawns

That’s why I’m doing my part to help it take over :)

Clover is pretty hardy and in my experience doesn’t even fight the grass aince they thrive on different nutrients or something like that.

Ok, that sounds like it sucks.

Red clover is native to the west coast, it’s edible, makes a good incense apparently, and it looks rather handsome imo.

herbs are just weeds that taste and/or smell good.
It is classified in my state as a weed
