- Adds organic matter to the soil as it decomposes

- Gives gardens and landscaping a neat, finished appearance

How much mulch should I use?

Apply a 2-4 inch layer of mulch around plants, trees, and shrubs. Be sure not to pile mulch directly against the stems or trunks.

When is the best time to apply mulch?

Mulch can be applied any time of year, but is most commonly done in the spring or fall. Reapply as needed to maintain the 2-4 inch depth.
