gedit opening on linux box instead of in X server over SSH [duplicate]

I am connecting to an Ubuntu 22.04 machine using PuTTy and Xming from a windows 11 laptop. When I try to open gedit, the window does open, but it opens on the linux box and not over the SSH. All other programs open in Xming like expected. How can I get gedit to open on the remote machine rather than the host? I have never seen it work this way, where sending the command over SSH causes the window to open on the linux machine. Google hasn't been helpful.
