Get Those Weeds Out – Forever!

Believe it or not, it’s really easy to eliminate pesky weeds, grass and other growing plants in your rock areas – where you don’t want them.

Don’t bother with things like weed mats that are supposed to keep the weeds out. A really simple fix is to lay a 2 to 3 inch layer of concrete crush below your preferred rock topping. The lime in the concrete will kill just about any type of growing plant and your rock area will look great for years to come!
