Mulching...
Mulching is one of the best things you can do for your soil and plants. A fresh layer of mulch will help against the germination of weeds, which will reduce the need for chemical weed controls.
Mulch acts as an insulation barrier helping to protect against the extreme conditions of both the summer and winter. Mulching areas can be very attractive and can add to the natural look of any landscape. Available colors include: Black, Brown and Red. (Brown is shown above).
