30 year yard fabric - not
Happy Saturday beloved grandchildren,
During the summer I put some beautiful brown fabric under the roses. You remember that it was because the bark grew molds which reproduce by spores which kill roses. Anyway, I bought (yes, paid my good money for) some fabric that advertised itself as able to last 30-years. Phoooo, it is already rotting away in G'ma Judith's rosebeds.
Now, I can see that there will be fragments of this fabric around for a long time but if that was what the advertiser meant by "lasts up to 30 years" then we are far apart on meaning. I wanted a groundcover that would look nice (like bark does) and keep the roses healthy (like bark does not) and stay in a sheet for at least 10 years.
Back to the drawing board on this one!!!
Love, G'pa Bob
