What is mulch?
Garden mulch is a collection of natural material such as dead leaves that is spread as a protective layer over the soil in garden beds, borders and containers. Adding an extra layer of natural materials helps to protect plants from frost damage, it can help suppress weeds, retain moisture and provide additional nutrients for the soil. So instead of putting the mulched leaves in your garden waste bin, add a layer of mulch to your garden and see how it can help your plants.
