MULCH, MULCH, MULCH

Spring is right around the corner, so you know what that means. Time to start thinking about mulching those flower beds! Now you may think that the only purpose of mulch is to add an accent color to your landscape, but the truth is that mulch does so much more! Not only does it add another color element to your landscape but it also helps defend against those pesky weeds that may arise. We recommend maintaining a 2-3” layer. As the mulch is degrading it is also putting healthy nutrients back into the soil. That is why its important to turn your beds on a regular basis. Maintaining a healthy level of mulch in your landscapes can also reduce the amount of watering you may need to do during the warmer months.
