Mulching of beds is a great way of improving the soil
structure, keeping the weeds down and retaining moisture within the soil.
We apply an organic compost to a depth of approx. 50mm to a
typical bed. It is a good idea to re-apply once a year as over time the soil
structure will greatly improve; the compost also provides a great canvas to
show off your lovely plants!
Other effective mulches include, bark chippings,
cobbles of varying sizes, slate, pea shingle. If a membrane is installed under
the mulch then the weeding will be further reduced
