landscape fabric

Garden ground cover

Landscape fabric is a permeable material laid over soil to suppress weeds while allowing water and air through.

Gardeners spread it around plants and under mulch or gravel in beds and pathways: We put down landscape fabric before adding the river rock.

Also called weed barrier or weed cloth.
