Mulch is more than a decorative layer—it’s a powerful tool for soil health, moisture retention, and weed suppression. Here’s how to mulch the right way:

Types of Mulch:

  • Organic: shredded bark, wood chips, pine straw.
  • Inorganic: rubber, gravel (used in specific scenarios).

Benefits:

  • Prevents weed growth.
  • Regulates soil temperature.
  • Retains moisture and reduces erosion.

  • Apply 2-3 inches thick.
  • Keep mulch a few inches away from tree trunks and plant bases.
  • Refresh annually or as needed based on decomposition.
