Mulch can help protect your plants and trees
Most homeowners know that mulch is great for suppressing weeds and retaining moisture in the soil, but it also helps regulate the temperature of the soil. This means when the heat is nearing 100 degrees, the plant roots stay nice and cool. Also, when the temperature dips down in the winter months, it helps keep the roots warm.
All this while providing additional nutrients available for the plant’s roots to soak up and keep it healthy and looking good
Avoid applying too little or too much mulch
Laying not enough mulch and your plants won’t receive the many benefits. Laying too much mulch can lead to fungal growth near the truck of a tree and smoother roots. For the best result, a 3 inch layer of mulch is the best amount
Purchase mulch from a reputable supplier
While it can be easy and convenient to purchase bagged mulch from a big box store, the quality is very questionable. Often times it has construction debris, toxins, hazardous materials, and even mold.
