My yard's about like that, a little bigger maybe. You could try weed block. I'm not a big fan. It's SO much work to put it down. Then, what if you want to move the plants around?
It's fine for the area around the decorative grass, because the grass is all that's in that bed and we are not moving porcupine grass.
And it's okay if you're doing a new bed. But try getting it around existing plants. What a nightmare. And some plants are biennial(sp?) and die off if they can't reseed.
I have not found ground covers that keep all the weeds out. but some do disguise it some - I have a low sedum, some dead nettle, and some thing that blooms in yellow. A few others, not like I remember, lol.
I also mulch heavy in the spring. That keeps some weeds down.
But if ya come here, you will see weeds. I do what I can, but it's part of the game.
