These beautiful plants will easily displace weeds from your garden: you probably didn’t know about their properties

Weeds are a real problem for gardeners, as they take away literally everything from cultivated plants: water, nutrients, sunlight and other “benefits”.

If you are only familiar with the mechanical method of weed control, you will probably be interested in another one - displacing unwanted vegetation with the help of beautiful flowers. Their list was compiled by an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .

Important note: before you read the list, it is worth knowing that the plants named in it are themselves quite aggressive, which means that they will also require restrictive measures.

Hosta

Hostas have such spreading leaves that you can be sure that no plant can live in the shade they create. So consider planting these flowers in the shade or along paths.

Astilbe chinensis

This plant deserves the title of a real beauty. In addition, astilbe has many varieties, the flowers of which have different colors. An excellent option that can be used to frame ponds.

Cuff

Few people can resist these lush shocks of beautiful carved leaves. Since the plant feels great in partial shade and has a stunning appearance from the moment it blooms in the spring until the cold weather, you can safely sow the cuff in empty spots in the garden.

Bergenia

Don't be fooled by the fact that bergenia doesn't grow very fast - after 2-3 years it will completely "take over" the territory given to it. Another advantage of this flower is that you can make healthy tea from it.
