My Overgrown Garden: How to Tackle the 'Hidden' Weeds

I recently noticed that my prized rose bushes have been overtaken by a thick layer of weeds, which have grown so dense that they're now competing with the roses for water and nutrients. I've tried to manually remove them, but it seems like they keep coming back. Has anyone else dealt with this issue? What methods have you found most effective in tackling these 'hidden' weeds, and are there any specific products or techniques that you'd recommend for a beginner like me?

Start by identifying the types of weeds you have. Are they annuals or perennials? Knowing this will help you choose the right control methods. Consider using a combination of physical removal, mulching, and targeted herbicides. For particularly stubborn weeds, try using a weeding fork to loosen the soil around the roots. Don't forget to remove weeds when they're young, as they're easier to eradicate. What's the size of your garden and how often do you tend to it?
