Venice lawn care mulching tips. What type of mulch is best for your landscape beds ? There are so many diffrent types of mulch, the best is the mulch that is readily available in your landscape, such as Oak leaves, pine needles, mulched shrub trimmings, leaves from trimming hedges such as viburnum, rake leaves into the bed and water them to keep them in place, these leaves will break down and give natural benefits to the plants. No fertilizer no mulch, big savings. Cypress Mulch in Venice is not recomended becuase it is an important barrier to our costal waters, with out them storm surge from storms becomes much worse, also it is a nursery for fish and crustacians to reproduce, being destroyed at alarming rates the landscape industry has done the right thing and leaned towards other mulches such as Flora Mulch, which is mostly mellilucca trees, I find mulching with flora mulch in Venice is better in a few ways, such as it last longer than cypress mulch, its color is darker and makes the landscape stand out much better, also it is helping the Florida Everglades rid itself of the ever invasive Mellilucca tree, this species of tree is so invasive that it is changing the entire make up of the Florida everglades. So to rap things up, always use mulch in your landscape beds, it suppreses weeds, keeps moisture around root zones of plants, and decomposes to make a rich nutrient filled soil in which you would not have if not using mulch.
