Benefits Of Mulching
Mulch is defined as any material applied to the surface of the soil, such as decaying leaves, bark, decomposed granite, or rock. Some of the benefits of adding mulch around trees and beds are:
Nurture Your Soil And Preserve Water
Mulch absorbs water and helps to keep your landscape moist. During the summer, mulch will give water to your plants.
Inhibits Weed Growth
Mulch acts as a barrier on your lawn. It limits the amount of sunlight that reaches the soil, and when the sunlight can’t find its way to the weeds, the weeds will not grow.
Moderates Soil Temperature
When mulch covers the soil, plant roots will be kept cooler during the summer. During the winter, mulch protects plant roots from the cold and inhibits frost.
Helps To Control Erosion
When the water impacts the soil, mulch helps to protect and maintain your landscape. Keep your outdoor space looking beautiful by adding mulch to your beds!
