SHIPLAP AND SHELLS
Does your garden need a little boost? By mulching garden beds, you’ll be providing so many benefits to your outdoor spaces.
Gardening suppresses weed growth, reducing manual weeding and minimizing the use of chemical herbicides in your flower beds and garden.
By acting as a protective barrier, mulch reduces water evaporation from the soil surface, preventing water loss during the hot summer months.
The layer of mulch acts as a protective shield, preventing rainwater from directly hitting the soil surface and washing away valuable topsoil.
As organic mulch materials break down, they gradually release nutrients into the soil. This release acts as a natural fertilizer that enriches the soil.
Mulching contributes to soil health by adding organic matter to the garden soil and improving soil aeration, drainage, and the retention of soil nutrients.
A blanket of mulch acts as a natural insulator, keeping the soil cooler during hot weather and protecting plant roots from freezing temperatures in colder climates.
Mulching creates a protective layer around plant roots, shielding them from extreme temperatures, both hot and cold.
The use of mulch in your garden beds provides numerous benefits, including water retention, weed control, improved soil health, and soil temperature regulation. For a more in-depth guide, visit the blog.
