Today
I went to Lowe's garden center to buy Scotts Organics NatureScapes
Advanced Sierra Red Mulch. I used this mulch in the spring this year
and really liked it and is my new favorite garden mulch.
What
I like about the Scotts Organics mulch is that it does not fade under
the hot sun.
Here is a photo of my summer black-eyed Susan garden.
I applied three layers of mulch and it naturally prevented weed
growth. This saved me time and effort because I did not have to go
out weekly to spot-check the gardens for weeds or annoying crabgrass.
Another
benefit is that this mulch holds the water and released it into the
soil when needed. I did not have to water my gardens daily
throughout the hot summer months and the container garden plants did
not wilt in the afternoon.
So
today I mulched my flower gardens with 3 layers of Scott's
Organics Sierra red mulch and this extra layer of mulch will protect
my flower gardens from ice and snow this winter.
