Why do I need Mulch? What are the benefits of Mulch?
- A great benefit of mulch is that it smothers out weeds.
- Mulch offers GREAT curb appeal, especially for selling your home.
- Using mulch is one
of the best things you can do to help conserve water in your landscape while also
improving your soil.
- Organic mulch (anything that was once a plant) improves your
soil as it decomposes. As the mulch decays it releases nutrients for your plants
to use. It also brings the pH of the soil closer to neutral while improving
the structure of the soil.
- Mulch helps to prevent water loss from your soil by providing
protection from the sun's heat. By keeping the soil cooler, water does not evaporate
as quickly as it would if the soil were allowed to receive direct sunlight.
- Mulch
helps to protect the root zone of plants by insulating the soil from both hot and
cold weather - it protects the plant roots from the heat of the sun and it also
protects them from cold temperatures.
- Mulch makes it easier for water to seep into
the soil and also lessens the amount of soil that gets washed or blown away during
storms.
- Mulching landscape
areas helps plants to grow faster because they do not have to compete with grass
or weeds for the water and nutrients they need.
- It gives a finished appearance
to the landscape.
