Gardening Question:
I want to put a garden bed along the front of my house. Should I put anything down (gardening fabric, plastic...) before putting the soil down? Only b/c it will be against my house...
As always - TIA!!

Re: Gardening Question:
It's not necessary. Gardening fabric or plastic would only be required for weed control. Landscaping fabric can be a problem when it rains a lot. It can also be a pain to deal with when you have to access the flower bed to fertilize. And if it's too wet it can produce bugs.
You might consider a natural mulch like wood chips.
