Mulching not only enhances the appearance of your garden but is also a key technique for protecting your trees and plants year-round. At Palmer Tree Services, we apply mulch professionally to ensure lasting results and a vibrant outdoor space.

What Is Mulching and Why Should You Apply It?

Mulching involves covering the soil around trees, shrubs, and plants with organic materials (like shredded bark or wood chips) or inorganic materials (like stone or gravel). This technique provides numerous benefits:

🌱 Retains Moisture:
By reducing water evaporation, mulch keeps the soil cooler and hydrated for longer, lowering the frequency of watering.

🌿 Prevents Weed Growth:
It creates a physical barrier that stops unwanted weeds from competing for nutrients and space.

🌳 Protects Roots:
Mulch regulates soil temperature, protecting roots from extreme summer heat and harsh winter cold.

🍂 Enriches the Soil:
As organic mulch breaks down, it improves soil quality by providing essential nutrients your plants need to grow strong and healthy.

🌟 Improves Your Garden’s Appearance:
A well-applied layer of mulch gives your outdoor space a clean, polished, and professional look.
