DJ,
I know this is probably a dumb question, but I do need help with it. I have a bed around my front porch and have lots of different things in it...the problem is the weeds. I clean out the bed every spring and fall, but the weeds are coming back within a month and continue popping up here and there. Some of them get away from me and before I know it, it looks like I've planted a bush! I wish I knew what this one weed was called. I hate those things and it is always the first thing to come back. Anyway, I have the black stuff down...and have put new down, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Is there something I can spray that wouldn't hurt the plants, flowers or bushes in there?
