Adding Mulch
Add organic mulch such as leaf litter, shredded bark, wood chips, etc. Mulch three to four thick helps protect tree roots from temperature extremes, conserves soil moisture, and helps prevent grass from completing for nutrients. Shredded bard and larger wood chips also discourages lawn mowers and weed eaters from hitting the trunk. Keep the mulch 3 to 4 inches away from the trunk. |
