+ Proper Mulching

 Mulches are materials placed over the soil surface to maintain mositure and improved soil conditions. Mulching is one of the most beneficial acts a person can do for the health of a landscape. However, improper mulching materials and practices may have negative impact.

Not Too Much!

As beneficial as much is, too much can be harmful. The generally recommended mulching depth is 2 to 4 inches. Applying too much, or even forming mulch volcanoes, around the base of plants is harmful. Piling mulch against the trunk or stems of plants can lead to insect and disease problems.
