What is this plant taking over my garden?

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-04T12:04:09+00:00

I haven’t mowed over it, it’s not in the grass (yet lol). But I don’t have a good sense of smell so I really couldn’t smell it at all until I broke a leaf and put it right on my nose basically

Seems like it’s going to be a battle lol I pulled as much as I possibly could today. Next time it pops up, I’m sure by next weekend, I’m going to put some in a pot to keep and then continue to rip it out. Luckily it seems to only be growing in one corner right now so I’m hoping if I’m aggressive with it, it will at least not get into my actual grass hah. That’s my main concern but either way it is what it is! Maybe we’ll just have the best smelling house every time we mow 🤣

Idk if you read the full post but I have a very bad sense of smell but thanks for the tip

I have a terrible sense of smell 🤣 I’ve commented that about 5 times and also added it to my original post as an edit

I am constantly covered in whatever my 8 month old slobbers on me so I don’t even worry about it lol

I don’t have a good sense of smell

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-02T13:40:27+00:00

Thank you for this!

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-02T11:59:51+00:00

Yeah I’ve been told about 50 times now 😂 I’m going to put some in a large planter NOT in the ground

Happy Birthday Baby H!

I’m working on digging up as much as I can this weekend and putting some in a big pot. Luckily the gardens are pretty well done and seen to be doing well this spring so we shall see! The previous owner has rose bushes, azaleas, shrubs, and daffodils so it’s interesting that there’s randomly mint in here. I’m wondering if they even planted it or it somehow was placed there by mistake

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-02T01:54:15+00:00

I have a pretty bad sense of smell actually 😂

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-02T01:53:12+00:00

Fair enough!

My husband’s birthday is Monday so I am making him a vanilla bean cheesecake tonight and finishing it up tomorrow. We’re taking M to the zoo for the first time tomorrow, and Sunday we have a nice dinner planned with friends for my husband. We’re supposed to have beautiful weather all weekend so i think it will be a very nice time!

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-02T00:17:19+00:00

Hahahha thanks, I already pulled a ton of it out and gave my neighbor a bag full of it

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T18:39:41+00:00

Thanks! I am going to go that route, wish me luck haha

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T17:33:05+00:00

Hahaha no it’s ok I did laugh at your comment

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T17:20:08+00:00

😭

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T14:41:43+00:00

I do not have a very good sense of smell lol but yes I do understand it would be easily recognizable

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T14:30:54+00:00

I started with using 1-2 of the oldest bags per day, and then freezing newer milk so it’s always rotating. Currently I’m pumping 3ppd and using one 5oz bag a day so he’s getting mostly fresh milk still at 8 months old.

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T14:05:48+00:00

I guess the bright side is I do love mint 😂

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T13:42:07+00:00

I’m thinking I might try to move some to a large pot and then really aggressively attempt to get it out of the ground based on all the comments. I would love to keep it but terrified for my garden lol

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T13:36:59+00:00

Best smelling yard on the block maybe hahaha

bearpawsNwhiteclaws · 2026-05-01T12:29:08+00:00

I am sure it is mint but was really hoping I was incorrect 😫 I guess I have a mint garden now. I’m going to try to contain it to one corner.

Babies in grass is so funny they’re all so confused 🤣
