Having mulch
applied to your gardens is one of the best long time investments
you can make on your property. While providing a beautiful
background for your plant material, it also serves many truly
beneficial purposes.
| Spread over the
surface, mulch: |
| • |
... conserves
soil moisture. |
| • |
... suppresses
weeds. |
| • |
... keeps the force of
rain in check. |
| • |
...
prevents erosion and run-off and allows
the rain to slowly seep into the
soil. |
| • |
...
slows the evaporation process. |
As mulch decomposes it become
a valuable addition to the soil structure. Mulch never stops
working for you.
