What Is Mulching and Why It Matters

Mulching services involves applying a 2–4-inch layer of material over soil around your plants. This simple practice:

• Suppresses weeds by blocking sunlight

• Retains soil moisture, reducing evaporation

• Regulates soil temperature for healthier roots

• Prevents soil compaction, improving aeration

• Enhances curb appeal with a neat, finished look

Incorporating mulching into your lawn care routine conserves water, promotes plant health, and keeps beds looking pristine.

Benefits of Quality Mulch

• Weed control: Inhibits germination and growth

• Moisture retention: Sends more water to roots

• Temperature stability: Keeps soil cooler in summer, warmer in cooler months

• Soil health: Organic options break down, feeding your plants

• Aesthetic appeal: Available in a variety of colors and textures

Types of Mulch We Offer

Inorganic Mulch

• Rubber or wood-chip blends: Great for pathways and borders; long-lasting but don’t enrich soil

• Decorative stones: Ideal for rock gardens and drought-tolerant plants; raise soil temperature at night

Organic Mulch

• Grass Clippings: Free nitrogen and potassium; best when dried to avoid matting

• Cocoa Hulls: Adds potash, nitrogen, phosphate; may mold in humid climates

• Wood Shavings: Improves appearance and conserves moisture; avoid over-application to prevent root issues

• Straw: Builds soil structure and regulates moisture; watch for stray seeds

• Bark Chips: Durable, moisture-absorbent; may temporarily deplete nitrogen as it breaks down

• Pine Straw: Low-maintenance and erosion-resistant; replace more frequently and monitor for pests
