  • This area has been an eye sore ever since I completed the walkway. I decided to do a little makeover and make this area a nice flower bed. I started off by removing all the old dirt and weeds. I did this by taking a flat shovel and just skimming the area to the depth that I wanted. Then I spaced out the shrubs by eyeballing and then started to get them planted. Once I got all 5 boxwood gems planted I then installed the landscape fabric. I usually do this part before I plant but decided to do it the other way this time. I didn't have any landscape pins at my house so I just used the mulch to keep it down. I'm not a big fan of landscape fabric anyway but I some in the shop so decided to use it.

    No pins because I didn't have any and didn't want to go back to the store. This small of a bed it's just not necessary as the mulch will hold it down. 🤷‍♂️👊

      I've always laid my landscaping fabric down and secured it with landscaping staples, then cut X's where my plants were supposed to go and fold back the material. That way when my plant when in, I could tuck the fabric around the base and try to keep as many weeds out as possible.

    But really should a person cut a 6" strip and place it over each cut to prevent weeds forever?

    • @TopNotchLawns

      I usually so it that was but since the ground was really muddy I figured the cleanup would be harder and since it was just a small area I did it this way instead.

    • @christyinthecarolinas

    Weed barrier fabric becomes a nightmare after a while. Weed seeds land on top and weeds grow anyways, and since their roots grow down into the fabric they become harder to remove

    Landscape fabric does not belong under mulch. The mulch breaks down and creates a organic layer on top of the fabric. Essentially making the fabric worthless. Long term a non fabric mulched bed is easier to maintain

      Rubber mulch is better. Real mulch just breaks down and becomes a food source for pest. As a pest control guy I tell my customers all the time steer away from mulch and straw.

    Waste of money on fabric. That mulch will decompose and just form another layer of dirt for weeds to grow on top of the fabric. I tell all my clients it's easier to maintain a fabric-less mulched bed long term. Was taught 20 years ago, no rock, no fabric.
