Not a gardener but I definitely don't know

If it didn't smell so good and taste so great in ice cream, it would be a weed.

The only difference between an herb and a weed is how tasty it is. The only difference between a wildflower and a weed is how pretty it is.

It's just whether you want it there or not.

A rose bush in a corn field is a weed!

Technically anything can be a weed if it’s growing where it’s not wanted.

Mint will take over anywhere you plant it.
