Landscaping >> Benefits of Mulch

Benefits of Mulch:

• Retention of soil moisture.
• Weed and grass control.
• Protection of the trunk and surface roots from mowing equipment.
• Erosion control as mulch breaks the impact of rain.
• Increased soil fertility when organic mulches placed directly over the soil decompose.
• Improved soil structure (better aeration, temperature and moisture conditions).
• Simplified maintenance.
• Improved appearance.
• Reduced soil cracking that can damage small roots and speed drying.
• Help in preventing soil compaction.
