Your plants and trees can never have too much mulch, but generally a three-inch layer provides an effective and attractive covering. Mulch delivers all kinds of benefits, from helping to keep soil from drying out, to improving water penetration and air movement, to protecting plant roots and keeping weed growth at bay. Call (703) 339-8095 to discuss with our staff your mulch application. Take notice our website mulch photos and colors may vary, so we encourage you to visit the Yard to make your texture and color selection.
