The weeds are coming, there is no getting around it. Have no fear, however, bark/mulch and occasional but routine maintenance makes light work of weeds. This article will provide a good explanation >https://extension.psu.edu/putting-an-end-to-my-landscape-fabric-nightmare Also, take a look at this opinion piece by a professor of Horticulture >The Myth of Landscape Fabric I also read this online somewhere, that puts it into perspective… “I wish the word would get out to all homeowners that weed fabric is a waste of time and money. No part of any garden can ever be “maintenance free”. A thick layer of mulch does the job of suppressing most weeds just fine all by itself. You may occasionally have to pull out a couple weeds, but it’s easy when there’s no fabric. When weed seeds land on top of the fabric, and they will, the weeds will germinate and the roots will anchor nicely in the fabric, making it impossible to pull them out. It’s likely that eventually the fabric will need to be removed, but you’ll be ok with it because the plants will be stunted or dead due to a lack of moisture and you will be sick of looking at the fabric that invariably peeks out from under the mulch, looking like the garbage that it is. It’s not your fault, how would you know? You’ve been duped by an industry that makes and sells an unnecessary and harmful product.

A Helping Hand


Posted By on Jan 7, 2023

Here is something I have wanted to do for a while. A little bit of giving back to the neighborhood that has helped me out so much. As you may or may or may not know, we love what we do and we just happen to be very good at it (take a look at our portfolio). This has allowed us to stay put in Lake of the Pines for years. Obviously for me, being a resident here, A 2-mile commute every day has its advantages 🙂 Because of this trust placed in us as your “resident landscaper” I would like to offer a helping hand to people that could use it. Each month we will designate a day (right now I am thinking it will be one of the Friday’s before Parcel E is open) to go around and pick up piles and debris, make a small landscape repair, etc. Keep in mind, this is a need-based service not a want-based service, but if you could use a hand or know someone who can, please fill out this form to let us know and we will be in touch. Thanks for your understanding.
