Say goodbye to the annoying constant weeding. Laying down weed control fabric before creating a flower bed offers a lasting solution against troublesome weeds. Simply remove all weeds along with their roots from the area in question and lay the fabric on the ground. Cut holes in the mulch fabric where you want to plant. To secure it against the wind, it is advisable to use ground pegs. Water the garden fabric and cover it with wood, stones, or mulch.
