Yesterday we were in Luss on the edge of Loch Lomond. In front of one

dandelions proliferate. Would these flowers help keep them down, or would
I
still be continually weeding around them?
Mint will grow straight through it. If you remove all of the
established dandelions, it will help to prevent them reestablishing,
but you will still have to weed some of them out.
That is great thanks
