Gardening advice

Valeriya • PCOS.... miscarried 1 pregnancy and momma to a baby boy 💙

I just had a baby and we wanted something low maintenance that weeds wouldn’t go through. Another group said it’s really stark and that the rocks will burn any plants I try to grow…. Would it look weird when we plant rose bushes and add some mulch around it like make a circle with the mulch and then have the rocks accenting each circle? Our house is brown and tan and I wanted the flower bed to lighten up our house.

Hello! I just seen this.. me and my husband run a landscape and lawn care company here in Kentucky, the rocks will not up the plants unless they are planted properly and correct to where all the roots are underground. Just be sure to water them everyday for about 15 minutes so the water can soak through the rocks and to the ground. But also if you want to pull the rock back and put mulch around them it would great also, as long as you go with a color that won’t clash with the color of the rock and your house. We always love the black mulch. 😊

But I will say, I hate to be the Debbie downer about, but unless you put the weed control blanket with either mulch or rock you won’t be able to control the weeds. Sadly they still can take over the rocks 😞
