RRR Lawn Care Tip of the Day! Don't Put a Dollar Plant in a Dime Hole!

Always dig the hole for your plant wider than the pot size the plant came in.  This allows for proper soil amendments as needed and creates open space for new root growth.  

Is Weed Fabric Necessary? - Grand Raids, MI Lawn Care Tip of the Day

Yes, always, if using decorative landscape stone or other aggregate to cover your landscape beds.  Definitely No, if using mulch because the mulch itself will suppress weeds when maintained at the proper depth.  Weed fabric is unnecessary with the use of mulch in planting beds and often times becomes exposed after the mulch degrades and not reapplied properly.
