Mulch Facts

Mulch plays a crucial role in maintaining the vitality of your garden. Here are some key facts about mulch:

  • Nutrient Boost: Mulch enriches the soil by gradually releasing essential nutrients, promoting healthy plant growth.
  • Moisture Retention: Mulch acts as a natural moisture barrier, reducing evaporation and helping your plants retain water during dry spells.
  • Weed Control: By creating a protective barrier, mulch suppresses weed growth, reducing the need for constant maintenance.
  • Erosion Prevention: Mulch prevents topsoil erosion caused by heavy rains, preserving the integrity of your garden beds.
  • Root Protection: Mulch insulates plant roots from extreme temperature fluctuations, shielding them from cold winters and hot summers.

Mulch Tips and Recommendations

To ensure optimal results, we offer the following tips and recommendations:

  • Shredded Mulch for Perennials/Annuals: For your perennial and annual flower beds, we recommend using shredded mulch, which provides excellent coverage and moisture retention.
  • Darker Mulch for Vibrant Blooms: If you want your blooms to stand out, choose darker mulch that beautifully contrasts with your flowers, creating a stunning visual impact.
  • Allow for Dry Time with Dyed Mulch: If you opt for dyed mulch, we advise ensuring a dry period of 24 hours after installation to prevent color transfer.
  • Optimal Thickness: For healthy beds, maintain a mulch layer of at least 3 inches, providing adequate insulation, moisture retention, and weed control.
