Keep Grass From Growing In Flower Beds With This
Plant Solution
By KOURTNEY BORMAN
Grass growing in your flower beds not only ruins the aesthetic but also deprives your plants of crucial resources. Thankfully, groundcovers offer a natural and effective solution.
These low-lying, beautiful plants create a living barrier that blocks grass and weeds, both above and below the soil, thereby preventing them from invading your flower beds.
While mulch can also help, groundcovers provide extra benefits such as improving soil structure and fertility by preventing erosion and adding organic matter as they decompose.
They too boost your garden’s overall health by retaining moisture, thus reducing the need for frequent watering, and by attracting beneficial pollinators like bees
and butterflies.
Opting for groundcovers over mulch can lead to a more vibrant, eco-friendly garden, with lush foliage and seasonal blooms that enhance the overall beauty of your outdoor space.
