Our mulching routine

  • Pull weedsRemoved by hand with the roots. Covering live weeds just buys them a few weeks.
  • Cut the lineA defined edge between bed and turf keeps the mulch in the bed and the grass out of it.
  • SpreadTwo to three inches, the depth UF/IFAS recommends for moisture and weed suppression.
  • Keep it backA clear ring around trunks and a gap along the house. Mulch against bark or siding invites rot and pests.

Choosing the material

Pine bark nuggets break down slowly and keep their color the longest. Pine straw is light, knits together on slopes, and suits the older Eustis homes where it has long been the look.

We’ll recommend what fits each bed, or simply top up whatever you already have.

Mulch and limited watering

Eustis is in the St. Johns River Water Management District, where landscape irrigation is limited to set days. Under the current Phase III order that means a single irrigation day a week. Sandy soil dries out fast, and a mulch layer is the least expensive way to slow that down between irrigation days.

Best time to mulch

Late winter into early spring works well: the oak leaves are down and the summer heat hasn’t arrived. Pine straw breaks down quicker than bark, so it usually wants a refresh in autumn.

Only where it has piled up too thick or against the house. Old mulch that has broken down improves the soil underneath.
