Good Old Fashioned Landscaping: Experienced Landscapers Serving Stonington, CT 06378

Preventing weeds starts with proper bed preparation. We recommend a multi-step approach: first, we clear all existing weeds and debris. Then, we install a high-quality landscape fabric or use a thick layer of newspaper as a barrier before adding mulch. We use a deep layer of shredded hardwood mulch, which naturally suppresses weed germination better than thin layers or stone. As part of our ongoing landscape maintenance, we can provide seasonal bed refreshes and spot-treat any breakthrough weeds, keeping your Stonington garden looking clean with minimal effort from you.
