Mulch is organic material that is placed over soil. Mulch is frequently used in landscape design because it has many qualities that protect the soil while providing an enhancing design element to a landscape. Spreading mulch or mulching provides the following benefits to your landscape:

 

• Moderates soil temperature on hot sunny days

• Retains moisture during dry weather decreasing the need for watering

• Inhibits the germination of seeds from most weeds

• Reduces the need for the use of herbicides

• Inhibits soil runoff during rain storms

• Lessens the need for constantly cultivating bed lines

• Keeps the soil in a loam state which allows your plants and bushes to flourish
