Hello!

I've only been growing daylilies for a few years, and implemented a new weed control system this year. It did not work well. I put down biodegradable plastic with the intention of killing off perennial weeds, and intended to mulch and use preemergent in the fall to prevent new emergence. The biodegradeable stuff tore easily and got wickedly slick with any rain.

For next season, I'm thinking of trying to mulch immediately next to my daylilies, and plant ground cover (clover and short native grasses) in between rows. Has anyone tried this or something similar? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks
