What Is Mulching?
Mulching is the process of layering soil with protective materials—either organic like bark, wood chips, and straw, or inorganic such as rubber or decorative stones. This technique helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, improve soil quality, and create a polished, cohesive look across your landscape.
Key Benefits of Mulching
-
Enhanced moisture retention: Mulch reduces evaporation, keeping soil hydrated—especially valuable during dry spells.
-
Temperature control: It acts as a natural insulator, warming soil in winter and cooling it in summer.
-
Weed suppression: A dense mulch layer blocks sunlight, preventing weed seeds from sprouting.
-
Improved soil health: Organic mulch breaks down over time, enriching the soil with nutrients and boosting its structure.
-
Visual appeal: Mulch adds a clean, finished look to garden beds and pathways, enhancing overall design.
