Questions people ask
How thick should mulch be?
A couple of inches is a common target. Mulch piled too deep, especially against tree trunks and plant stems, can cause problems, so keep it even and pulled back from stems.
Do I have to buy the plants myself?
You can, or the neighbor can pick them up and you pay them back. Decide ahead of time who chooses the plants so there are no surprises on planting day.
How often do flower beds need weeding?
Every two to three weeks in the growing season keeps most weeds from going to seed. One big cleanup a season works too, but each one takes longer.
