Why Mulch?
Mulching is essential in Orange Park’s climate, where hot summers and sporadic rainfall can challenge plant health. Applying a layer of mulch around plants and flower beds helps to reduce water evaporation, minimize soil erosion, and improve overall moisture retention. For homeowners near Doctor’s Lake or in Middleburg, using mulch is a must.
In areas like Argyle Forest and Rideout, where community aesthetics are important, mulch serves a dual purpose of enhancing the visual appeal and promoting plant health. Mulch acts as a natural weed suppressant, saving homeowners time and effort in maintenance while creating a neat and well-kept appearance.
