weed mat information
- What is a weed mat?
Weed mat is a material placed around trees, flowers or shrubs to stop weeds and promote plant growth, without chemicals. It blocks sunlight so weeds can’t grow, but it’s also permeable so air and moisture can nourish your plants. Professionals have used it for years, and now it’s growing in popularity among home gardeners and landscapers.
- Is weed mat really better than plastic?
Yes! While black plastic does stop weeds, it also keeps air and water away from the soil, so plant-killing diseases develop. Weed mat blocks weeds, but its permeability allows the proper balance of air, water, and nutrients into the soil. As a result, plants can grow up to twice the size of plants grown without weed mat.

Yes. Our Pro Weed mat is the only one with a 100% guarantee against no weeds.
- What makes AGU weed mat better?

- Will weeds grow on top of the weed mat?
