As a landscaper I do a lot of weeding for my clients. I actually love to weed. What is hard to make them understand though is mulching. Mulching helps to keep the weeds at bay, but if you don't still pull up the strays, you will only end up with the best mulched weeds in the county! Trying to get people to understand that is hard. As my Grandmother always said " See a weed, pull up two. Soon a pretty garden will belong to you."

Great article, and so true. If you get on top of them and stay with it, the weed problem becomes almost no problem. Besides it can be a pleasant time to spend outside enjoying your garden.

So maybe there is HOPE for an 'almost' weed-free garden?

Thanks.
