Mulches provide a protective layer over the root system of plants, which protects the plants from harsh weather conditions in the summer and winter months. This protective layer also provides a barrier to enhance the moisture retention within the beds below (improves moisture retention by 25% on average). In addition, it enhances the aesthetic value of the beds by creating a uniform appearance.
