Varied Mulch Offerings

Mulches are organic or inorganic, each with unique benefits. While organic mulches enrich soil, inorganic ones don’t decompose but may benefit heat-loving plants.

Different Types of Organic & Inorganic Mulch

Homeowners in Michigan have options when it comes to choosing an organic or inorganic mulch. Our team can help you choose the best option for your landscape, including the following:

Wood Chips

Ideal for flower beds and shrub borders but not for annual beds or vegetable gardens due to annual digging.

Stones

Effective at suppressing weeds for extended periods, it is suitable for rock and cacti gardens but raises soil temperatures without soil benefits.

Grass Clippings

Release vital nutrients but may attract pests as they decompose.

Cocoa Hulls

Benefits soil vitality but may attract pests when wet or develop harmless mold in humid climates.

Wood Shavings

Reduce water and fertilizer needs but can block airflow, potentially leading to root rot.

Straw

Regulates moisture and maintains temperature in gardens but may contain seeds leading to weed growth.

Bark Chips

Superior water absorption, suitable for drier landscapes but may deplete soil nitrogen as they decompose.

Pine Straw

Low-maintenance and erosion control-friendly but requires frequent replacement and can attract pests.

Frequently Asked Questions

We know you may have questions about installing mulch at your home in Brighton, Howell, Pinckney, or Whitmore Lake, MI. Our experts at installing mulch are here to answer them, so feel free to reach out if you have any unanswered questions.

  • Applying mulch in early spring helps in suppressing weeds and retaining soil moisture during the growing season. However, fall mulching can protect plant roots against freezing conditions and temperature fluctuations.

  • Organic mulches decompose over time and typically need replenishment once a year. Inorganic mulches may last longer but require inspection and occasional replenishment to maintain their effectiveness and appearance.

  • While organic mulches can sometimes attract insects or small animals, proper selection and maintenance of the mulch type can minimize this risk. Our team can advise on the best mulch choices to reduce pest attraction.

  • Mulching over existing weeds can suppress their growth. Still, it’s advisable to remove significant weed growth beforehand to prevent future issues. Pre-emergent weed treatment can also help in controlling weed growth under the mulch.

  • The choice of mulch depends on your gardening needs, climate, and aesthetic preference. Our experts can guide you through selecting the most appropriate mulch for your landscape, considering soil improvement, moisture retention, and visual appeal.
