What if I want a lawn full of mint

[-] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Maybe your neighbours don’t? 😄

It's a plant. It grows naturally too. Ain't nobody removing all the mint from forests and such.

[-] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Mint doesn’t choke forests, but it will invade any smaller species.

[-] boonhet@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah but wouldn't it naturally pass from the forest to the adjacent gardens if it can pass from garden to garden?

I grew up 200 meters from the edge of the forest. I'm used to mom just finding random new plants she didn't even know she wanted. These would also pass to neighbours and obviously we got some from neighbours as well.

Mint is cool because you can use it to make herbal tea n stuff

Fuck them, I should be able to grow corn on my front lawn if I so desire.

[-] ebolapie@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Corn doesn't have the same negative externalities that an entire field of an invasive plant like mint would.

[-] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Corn doesn’t spread like literal wildfire, Mint does.
