Garden Mulching….Now is the time to Mulch the gardens after all this beautiful rain we have had in the last two months.
There are many different types of mulches and the main difference between them is their appearances and texture. Mulching dramatically suppresses weed growth, prevents soil erosion and insulates the soil from rapid temperature changes. Most importantly, mulching conserves water by reducing evaporation from your soil. When applying any kind of mulch be careful to leave some space around the plant crown, or tree base. If you pile any kind of mulch up against the crown, you will rot the plant out and it will die. So leave 2.5 to 5 cm of breathing room near the stem or base of the plant and you’ll be just fine.

When spreading mulch onto your garden beds we suggest that you apply to a depth between 50-100mm, Don’t skimp! Applying too little is the same as applying none at all.
