Mulching your gardens is the best way to retain water and to prevent weeds from spreading through your garden beds. There are a variety of different mulches available as well as different types of groundcovers that you can use. I do not recommend using colour dyed mulch as this is not a healthy option for your garden. Gro Bark Pine and Cedar is a variety that contains nutrients that benefit the soil when used. If you're trying to keep your weeds down you should plan to mulch your gardens every year, each year will only require a topping up compared to the first time mulching a brand-new bed. Natures image can deliver yards of mulch to our clients at a cost that is less than buying the material in bags.
