bark!
Hi
I've been using redwood bark as a weed barrier for years, but I dont like the way it decays and builds up the level of the soil. Is there anything else I can use for a weed barrier short of that fabric stuff that wont decay? regards John |

Nice & healthy for the most part? |

There is some new stuff that is double shredded that can be obtained at a garden supply in bulk. Thunder |
