I planted 16 roses this spring and, of course, did not get my usual weeding and mulching done on time. Ooops!
Our temps are in the 90s and low triple digits, so I can only work outside for a few hours in the morning and don't have enough time to get the regular summer chores completed before I risk heat stroke ...lol.
I have one weed that I am actually considering reclassifying to a ground cover, so that I can work on the other weeds. Before I get that lazy, I was wondering if anyone can help me ID the weed and let me know if I can either leave it alone and call it a ground cover. Other weeds do not easily penetrated its mass.
I would appreciate any information about ID or how to handle it.
It was the first weed that showed up in my poor soil when I first removed the decorative rock the previous owners of my home had in place, so I am guessing it can grow in poor soil, is drought and cold tolerant. It does much better when it gets water while I water the roses.
