COTTAGE MULCH

Organic mulches are derived from natural materials and are placed over
the ground to protect the soil surface.

Mulching is a beneficial gardening practice offering the following benefits:

• Minimises erosion – From wind, storm water runoff and raindrop impact
• Reduces evaporation rates, maintaining soil moisture.
• Retards weed growth.
• Moderates soil temperature.
• Enhances conditions for micro-organism growth by adding soil carbon.
• Improves the appearance of the garden area and highlights plant foliage.
• Slow decomposition adds nutrients to the soil in the longer term.
