I myself have a spot out in my yard close to the fence where nothing will grow; anything that is planted there struggles on for a little while before shriveling up and calling it a day. The running theory is that there must be some sort of legacy contaminant in the soil in that spot, and as of now, that spot in my yard remains blank.
While the spot in my own yard isn't under any threat of fines, this spot was. And when the HOA refused to relent he decided “Well, sod it.” and researched a plant that fit the HOA requirements to "establish adequate green coverage using appropriate plant materials for erosion control." Finding that mint wasn't banned in any way, he planted copious amounts of it. The rest, so they say, is history, as the aggressive plant spreads throughout the neighborhood, into other yards and common areas.Hey, at least that neighborhood probably smells fantastically fresh… And if you're ever craving a Mojito, there will always be mint for you to harvest.

"HOA demanded "more green coverage" so I gave them ALL the green coverage..."

Actual photo of the HOA when they figured out what the homeowner had done
This is not actually the photo; this is a joke. Image is representative only and does not depict the actual subjects of the story.
