Benefits of mulching include:

• Retaining moisture by reducing evaporation
• Interrupts the germination of weeds
• Reduces soil temperature in the summer and retains heat in the soil in the winter
• Improves the aeration, structure, and drainage of the soil
• Provides extra nutrients
• Prevents plant disease by forming a barrier around the plant
• Protects trees from damage caused by weed whackers or lawnmowers
• Minimizes the competition between plants for nutrients and water

Here are some tips to keep in mind while laying the mulch to maximize its potential benefits:

• Remove weeds from the area and water it thoroughly before laying the mulch
• Fresh composted, organic wood chips make the best mulch
• Do not lay mulch within several inches of the base of the trees or shrubs to keep the root crown exposed
• Areas with fine mulch should be about 2 inches deep while areas with coarse mulch can be about 4 inches deep
