What is Mulching?
Mulching is the process of applying a layer of material on the surface of soil to conserve moisture, improve soil health, and enhance the appearance of garden beds. Common materials used for mulching include wood chips, straw, and grass clippings. At Waltham Landscaping Services, we recommend mulching as an effective way to suppress weeds, regulate soil temperature, and provide nutrients as the mulch decomposes. This practice not only benefits your plants but also contributes to a more sustainable garden environment.
Benefits of Mulching in Waltham

Mulching offers numerous advantages for your landscaping needs, enhancing both the beauty and health of your garden.
Weed Control
Mulch acts as a barrier, preventing sunlight from reaching weed seeds and significantly reducing their growth.
Moisture Retention
By covering the soil, mulch helps retain moisture, reducing the need for frequent watering and promoting healthier plants.
Soil Temperature Regulation
Mulch insulates the soil, keeping it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, which benefits plant roots.
Nutrient Enrichment
Organic mulches decompose over time, adding essential nutrients back into the soil and improving its overall quality.
Erosion Prevention
Mulch helps prevent soil erosion by reducing the impact of rain and wind on the soil surface.
Aesthetic Appeal
A well-mulched garden enhances the visual appeal of your landscape, providing a clean and polished look.
