Manage weeds

A little, often.

4 min read

Weeds are the most common challenge in a new wildflower patch.

Tips

  • Walk your patch every week or two
  • Pull weeds when soil is moist and before they flower
  • Cut tough perennial weeds repeatedly to weaken them
  • Fill gaps with plugs so there's less room for weeds
  • Avoid herbicides near your flowers
