What weed grew best for you this year?
"Zemedelec" wrote in message ... Sorry but I couldn't resist blending two neighboring messages. In my case I'd have to say Japanese Climbing fern, with Cat's Claw as a close second. zemedelec They all did well - lambs quarter, dandelion, sorrel, oxalis, ground ivy, clover, etc, etc. But I allow all the weeds to grow until they flower and pull them before they seed. Most are beneficial to attract insects and the ones with deep tap roots help to pull up nutrients from the soil. The clovers and sorrel I use as green mulch. The ground ivy I definitely pull out of the beds but it makes a nice hardy ground cover for pathways. |
