    And dandelion. That’s mostly from them being everywhere and easy to grow. And hard to do anything else with.

    Humans would do anything for extra calories or nutrients once upon a time.

      A plants only a weed if you decide it. If you’ve got a good lawn and almost any kind of mulch, doesn’t matter much what your neighbors doing.

      The city stopped spraying for broadleaf unless the field is covered by more than 60% or something, the median beside my house is littered with them, but my front and backyard maybe gets 2 a week to pluck.

        Not true for tight small city yards.

        I would need a layer of mulch deeper than any of my in ground plants could handle.

          I have exactly that, a 1” layer of straw mulch protected my raised garden beds. You can also use biodegradable “plastic” mulch too.
