Mulchtime

Father's Day is Sunday, May 15th. Check your planting beds: they just might be ready for a fresh layer of mulch. Remember to maintain a blanket of 2-3" deep year-round, up to 6" deep during periods of extreme drought. Use a natural mulch comprised of shredded native tree matter. No need to scrape off previous applications of mulch. Next mulching should be done around Thanksgiving.
