We had straw and the wind blew it away to expose the landscape cloth under it. I had it replaced with beautifully colored rocks not touching my plants. There are weeds but it depends on the depth of the rock mulch. If the rock mulch is deep - no weeds. And the wind has not blown them away. The landscaper was a bit sloppy and I chose to redo the work myself. Including replacing the cloth with staples (under a low bush too - that was not fun, getting scratched from the branches). Hubby cleaned the rocks one by one, they are about golf to tennis ball size. I put them back. It took days as we did only as much as we wanted to each day. Now it really is “our” garden.
