mulching

Question

I have a rose garden and it has been mulched before, now some weeds are coming up. Is it necessary to remove weeds or can I just mulch over them and be done with the job?

Answer 1

Depending on the type of weed. Sometimes the mulch can smother out the weeds. I would say though that removing the weeds is the best way to ensure that your garden stays clean and keeps the weeds from spreading.
