Just had an idea for my problem flower garden and wanted to see if anyone had tried this before and whether it helped.
I have one flower garden that has burmuda grass in it and I'm fighting the battle but it does get OLD. Here is what I thought of trying. Once I clear out as much of the pesky stuff as possible would it help to lay newspapers around the plants and then put the mulch back on top? Would that help kill the grass off since it can't get sun and etc or will it just look for a gap and push its way through?
Anyone try this?
Roundup is my next option. But I don't want to hurt my plants.
