I weeded and mulched this area. The previous owner planted mint and I've been fighting it, I know for I'm going to see the mint come back so im looking for suggestions.

I want to plant something nice and esthetic here, something that can help out compete the mint which im sure I'll still be dealing with.

Strong preference for something native to New York that encourages pollinators.

The spot gets a lot of sun in afternoon, no shade from foilage.

Tysm in advance! New to sub and rather amateur gardener.
