Whatsit called? - no-growth groundcover mat

May 12, 2005 6 Replies

A few weeks ago, I saw something at a nursery that looked like some sort of synthetic mat that you could cut to fit a space and put it down outdoors to stop plant growth in a specific area. Now I'm trying to look it up, and I'm failing at Google. "no plant growth mat" "stop plant growth synthetic" "stop plant grow"



I give up. Anyone know what they're called?



TIA!

Or OP might be referring to one of those mulch mats made from ground up tires although most of those I've seen are round and meant to surround trees.

Landscape fabric? Around here, at least. 36"X 50' rolls, usually a black color. RJ

surround

This sounds like it might the stuff, or close to it, but what I saw was rectangular and folded like a blanket.

However, it looks like landscaping fabric will do exactly what I need, too.

Thanks!

I've seen it, usually in signs or such where letter space is at a premium as "weed mat".
