Tips for the application of peat moss and preen
When do you apply preen to flower beds? Do you do it before you put peat moss down or do you apply it after?

I would apply the Preen after the peat moss and work the peat moss lightly into the topsoil so it does not form a crust on top when it dries. Peat moss is a great soil amendment but when it dries out it can be hard to moisten and even repels water.
Keep growing,
