Many people feel that spring is the time to mulch their landscaping beds. It looks good and protects their plants from the extreme heat of the summer. But have you ever thought about mulching in the late fall or early winter?
Mulching this time of year is actually very beneficial for your plants. Mulching in Ohio’s colder weather helps in three basic areas:
Soil moisture retention
Weed suppression
Soil temperatures
Mulching this time of year can also protect your plants from the extreme COLD of winter. It will also preserve moisture if we do not receive enough precipitation. Your landscaping will thank you, and your home will look great for your Holiday guests!
