Mulching involves applying material to your garden's soil surface. The mulch layer, typically 2 to 4 inches thick, depends on plant size. This chosen material covers the soil around plants.

Mulching offers numerous benefits crucial for your lawn care regimen. It prevents weed growth and reduces soil compaction during rainy seasons. Additionally, it boosts soil nutrition, maintains even soil temperature, conserves water by retaining moisture from watering, and effectively delivers water to plant roots. Finally, mulch ensures a visually appealing and consistent appearance for your flower beds and garden.

Types of Mulch We Offer:

Different types of mulch are at your disposal, falling into two categories: inorganic and organic. While both can stifle weed growth, only organic mulches enhance soil quality as they decompose over time. In contrast, inorganic mulches do not break down, yet some can warm the soil and emit heat at night – ideal for heat-loving plants like eggplants and cherry tomatoes.

Unveiling Mulch Diversity: Organic and Inorganic Mulch

Chips: Ideal for pathways and borders, not recommended for annual flower beds.
Stones: Great for weed control but may elevate soil temperatures.
Grass Clippings: Release nutrients but can attract pests.
Cocoa Hulls: Boost soil vitality but may invite pests in wet conditions.
Wood Shavings: Enhance yard aesthetics but hinder airflow.
