Weed-Supressive Groundcovers
Researchers at Cornell University and Cooperative Extension-Suffolk have evaluated many plants useful as groundcovers to determine which ones are superior at suppressing weed growth in plantings. Trials were performed in Ithaca and Riverhead, NY to determine the ease of establishment, low maintenance characteristics, and their ability to exclude weeds. When used properly, these selections will provide aesthetic and functional value resulting in fewer weeds, less herbicide use, and reduced maintenance costs.
