Our garden bed is constantly encroached by the horrible couch grass and we are only renting so it would be a very costly exercise to do something to prevent this from happening. It is extremely exhausting to weed these 4 garden beds and I usually have to do it over a week or two (because of my Lupus) so it gets to looking like this at least once a year, hence we miss out on planting for either winter or early spring and sometimes both. #gardenfails
