Mulching
Mulching
The benefits of mulching your garden beds is very rewarding to keep your gardens and plants healthy all year long. Not only does it enhance the beauty of your gardens & gives great curbside appeal but there are other vital reasons for its importance.
Besides looking appealing mulch keeps your plants from drying out and helps maintain soil moisture all year long. Mulch contains much needed nutrients to help plant growth containing nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. Your plants and landscape will be very happy and healthy to receive these much needed nutrients.
Mulch will also protect roots from heat damage as well as frost and cold damage during the spring and fall. The other benefit that we all know is that mulch makes a great weed barrier. Mulch will actually inhibit germination and spreading of invasive weeds from reaching the soil surface.
Benefits of Mulch:
- Enhance Curbside Appeal
- Keeps Soil Moisture in Gardens
