How to Use
FOR BEST WEED-FREE RESULTS

- Cut an X shaped hole in the membrane and plant shrubs and flowers into the planting hole.
- Cover the membrane and under the plant canopy with bark chips.
SMALL BORDERS
- Remove all weeds and debris.
- Spread bark 2.5-5cm deep.
- Be sure to cover the area well underneath every plant canopy and root area.
CONTAINERS & POTS
- Spread a 3-5cm layer of bark over the top of compost or soil. This will provide important thermal insulation, reduce water loss, and make the pots easier to water.
AFTERCARE
- Remove any annual weeds and debris as they appear.
- To maintain a good bark layer, replenish the area with fresh bark annually.
- Check the compost underneath is fresh and has not formed a crusted salt layer, replace is necessary.
