Frequently Asked Questions
What types of trees and shrubs are best for preventing weeds in my Taylor Ridge mulch beds?
We recommend dense, low-growing shrubs and groundcovers that fill in space naturally, leaving less room for weeds to establish. For Taylor Ridge, options like dwarf spirea, potentilla, or junipers are excellent choices. Proper spacing at planting is also crucial—we can help you plan so plants mature to cover the bed, creating a living mulch that suppresses weeds.
How can I choose plants from your farm that won't become overgrown and unmanageable?
The key is selecting the right plant for the right place, considering its mature size. At Meyer's Tree Farm, we label all our stock with expected height and width. We'll help you choose dwarf or compact varieties that fit your space without constant, heavy pruning. This proactive selection saves you from the common local issue of shrubs outgrowing their planting area.
Do you offer advice on proper mulching to keep my landscaping beds healthier?
Absolutely. Correct mulching is vital for weed suppression and plant health in our Illinois climate. We advise applying 2-3 inches of organic mulch, keeping it a few inches away from tree trunks and shrub stems to prevent rot. We can recommend the best mulch types we carry and show you how this simple step retains moisture, regulates soil temperature, and dramatically reduces weed growth in your beds.
