Mulch is very important in keeping your perennials and other blooms happy. It’s a type of material that you lay onto of the surface of your garden that helps to keep the soil moist and reduce your weed population. In fact, if your garden beds are sprouting a lot of weeds, a lack of mulch may be to blame, according to Neese.
“Barren ground erodes each time it rains, and the weed seeds get light and germinate. If the soil is covered with at least two to three inches of mulch, then there is less likely going to be weeds.” FYI, mulch can be made from both inorganic materials like rubber, or organic materials like wood chips and pine bark nuggets.
