What To Use To Cover Red Clay Area With No Sunshine?
Q: What suggestion do you have to cover an area under our deck that is red clay but has no sunshine? What grass or ground cover could we use?
A: All plants must have sufficient sunshine to photosynthesize. I will wager there is not enough light under your deck to support either grass or groundcover plants. Consider pine chip mulch instead.
