Mulching

Not only does mulch improve the appearance of your gardens and beds, it also has many non aesthetic benefits as well. Here is a list covering the many benefits regular mulching can bring to your yard;

-Mulching prevents loss of water from the soil by evaporation.

-Mulching reduces the growth of weeds, when the mulch material itself is weed-free and applied deeply enough to prevent weed germination or to smother existing weeds.

-Mulching keeps the soil cool in the summer and warm in the winter, which maintains even soil temperature greatly benefits your plants.

-Mulching prevents soil splashing, which not only stops erosion but keeps soil-borne diseases from splashing up onto the plants.

-Organic mulches can improve the soil structure. As the mulch decays, the material becomes topsoil adding nutrients and keeping your plants well fed.

-Mulching prevents crusting of the soil surface, which improves the absorption and movement of water into the soil.

-Mulching prevents the trunks of shrubs and trees from being damaged by lawn equipment, such as weed eaters.

-Mulching helps prevents soil compaction, which limits root growth and prevents drainage.
