Description You’ll love what Typar can do for your garden or yard. Typar helps you keep your landscaping healthy and free of weeds. Made of nonwoven spunbonded polypropylene, Typar is strong enough to block weeds — yet porous enough to ensure the passage of necessary water and liquid nutrients. To prevent premature degradation, all landscape fabric must be covered with mulch or rock. If you have no desire to cover, please consider Ground Cover. At 3.0 ounces per square yard, it’s the heavy-duty, professional-weight landscape fabric. A spunbonded polypropylene, its continuous fibers mean it won’t easily unravel or fray. Unlike black plastic, it is porous to allow air, water and nutrients through to the roots of the plants, which allows for all-important healthy soil conditions. It actually retains moisture under it so plants have access to more water, but water will not pool on top of it and become “sour” as sometimes happens with black plastic.
