Mulch Sales Western Suburbs, Melbourne

The addition of mulch will improve the health of the soil and beautify the appearance of your landscaping. The purpose of mulch is pretty basic: it acts as a barrier, keeping sunlight and some air away from the soil surface. This will keep weeds down and reduce the need for water. Annual weed seeds are less likely to sprout when the soil is covered with enough mulch to keep the soil surface in the dark.

When it comes to water, even a thin layer of mulch (nature’s moisturizer!) will reduce evaporation from the soil surface. A thicker layer of mulch can reduce water use by as much as 50 percent.

But the main reason to mulch lies in winter. Alternately freezing and thawing, expanding and contracting soil can break new roots or even push new plantings out of the ground. By mulching generously with mulch sales Western Suburbs from B&B Tree Services, you can help keep the soil at an even temperature, thereby protecting your plants from the ravages of our Melbourne winters!
