Effectively Mulching Your Property

Effective Mulch and Mulching.? Hi I?m Shawn Fitzgerald with Davey Tree Commercial Grounds Management.?? Today we are gonna be discussing proper mulching.
As you can see, we?re on a very impressive commerical landscape site and obviously the owner values his landscape and spent lots of time and money investing in it.? Proper mulching is very beneficial for landscapes such as this.? But one of the most common mistakes I see is over mulching.? Let?s take a look at a few examples.
When mulches pile up against the stem, the trunk or the flare of a tree, it creates excessive moisture in here, which in turn, creates fungus and disease.? It also gives insects a place to harbor.? We want to pull the mulch away from the tree so it?s not up against the flare, stem or trunk.? We wanna mimic the wild and put the tree back in a natural setting.? If we went for a walk in the forest, you would never see mulch or turf grass pile up against the trunk or stem of a tree.
As we properly mulch this tree, you can see the excess mulch that we are removing.? We?ll have enough from this one tree to mulch three more trees properly.? We wanna make sure we keep the mulch away from the trunk, flare or stem of the tree and pull it out as far to the drip line as possible.? A properly mulched tree is very beneficial for your landscape.? By removing the excess mulch around the stem, trunk or flare of the tree, we have reduced the chance for insect and disease.
Also by creating a nice ring around the tree, we are eliminating the chance for trimmer or mower damage.? If possible, we would like to bring the mulch ring all the way out to the drip line.? This is where your absorption or feeder roots are for a tree of this size.? Obviously, that is not always feasible at all commercial sites.
