Any thoughts about using ground cloth in the flower bed? Seems to be big disagreement on this. Both sides have good reasons.

I have used it in the past, seemed to work ok with a layer of multch on top

We used it on a large bed of perennials, and it works fine....It does remain damp but doesn't hinder the flowers...We also used it all around the outskirts of the house for the same plants...Never tried it on annuals....oh yeah we used mulch on top of it also....Dave

Also I used it on tomato's and it Mildew set in this year....But no Mildew on the flower beds...??????
