Garden Mulch North Balwyn

Greenbelt Garden Care have just finished mulching garden beds as part of a garden maintenance in North Balwyn.

The mulch chosen by the owner was an organic one which will have great benefits for the plants and soil- organic mulch come from natural materials and  gradually decomposes adding nutrients to the soil over time. This will encourage earthworms to the soil, further improving it’s structure. The protective barrier that mulch provides reduces the amount of water lost from the soil by evaporation during the hot summer months. This means your plants will survive better through summer and your water bills won’t be as high. Mulching also reduces the amount of weeds in the garden beds.

Let’s not overlook the decorative benefits of mulching either- when we’d finished the North Balwyn’s garden was instantly rejuvenated giving it a neat and tidy appearance.

When spreading the mulch our team of professional gardeners took care to do this at a 2 inch thickness. If it’s applied too thickly water may not be able to penetrate to the soil. We pulled mulch away from the trunks of trees and plants to prevent excessive build up of moisture which can encourage plant disease and insect pests.
