Default BAGS OF LEAVES

I am in Wisconsin. we used bag of leaves on the rose bed as
insulation. next spring I haul them to a sunny spot, punch holes
in the bag and run water in. I stack them up and let them
marinate during the summer. by fall they are mostly broken down
and can be dug in for compost. Ingrid


Do I understand correctly that you leave the leaves in the bag and
place the filled bags around your plants? Do you do anything else to
protect the plant at ground level?
