Hi all, just wondering if anyone has used rock mulch (appx 3/4"-1") on Major Wheeler Honeysuckle (Lonicera Sempervirens)or on Zebra Grass (Miscanthus Sinensis 'Zebrinus')? Does anyone know if it will it harm or impede their growth?
I have 3 raised beds of which the middle will be a rock garden with succulents. The two end beds will have the Zebra Grass and one Honeysuckle each and all 3 beds are connected by a long berm/planting which will have honeysuckle (and other things) and probably be mulched with cedar.
My thought is to use the two end beds as staging/propagation areas for succulents while the other things are getting established, but rock mulch is needed for them for best performance in my area.
Any help or advice would be very appreciated.
Thanks,
J.C.
