Do you use landscape paper in your flower beds?

I’m going to mulch today and I thought about trying that black landscape paper.

Some people swear by it but many others say it doesn’t help. Is it worth the money and time?

No... save your money.

The way to control weeds is mow them down, then cover with cardboard and finally some thick layer of straw. Problem solved.
