Mulch installation is essential for all trees and landscapes. The professionals at Alpha Lawns can assist you in all of your seasonal needs.

.

Spring Installation

Plant and tree roots depend on their surroundings for healthy development. Adding a thick layer (optimally, 2-4 inches) in the spring assists in soil temperature regulation and moisture retention as temperatures shift. 

.

Spring is an ideal time for weeds to germinate and grow. Mulch can prevent weed growth up to two-thirds in landscape beds. In many cases (usually with help from treatment services),  it can dramatically decrease the frequency of pesky weed-pulling.

.

Summer Installation

Summer heat can dry up the soil and destroy plant growth. A fresh layer of mulch can protect soil from excessive heat (and keep it cooler than bare soil) and deliver more moisture to plants.

.

The heat also aids in increasing decomposition. Mulch releases essential nutrients into the soil as it decomposes, helping your plants flourish.

.

Fall Installation

A fresh installation is an essential part of a Fall Checklist. As the season comes to an end and you put your property “to bed” for the winter, mulch is a must

.

It protects roots from extreme temperatures and regulates soil temperature. It discourages the harmful freeze/thaw pattern that can be disastrous to roots. As the season progresses, it continues to decompose, which sets your plants up for a successful “spring” back to life the following year.
