Best Mulch for Crab Grass on Walkway

Question

I’m renting, so don’t want to spend a fortune–don’t know if I’ll be here next year. But the weeds–esp. crab grass and dandelions thrive on the walkway below the retaining wall of my glamorous flower bed. I’d like a cheap and simple solution

Answer 1

You can lay down layers of newspaper and cover this with enough mulch to hide the newspaper. The newspaper will suppress the weeds and the mulch cover will make it look nice.
