Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology.
Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us

Hello all,
We live here in north GA and was planning on putting new red colored
mulch to our garden beds in the front of our home. Right now, there is
a very thin layer of red mulch in some beds.

The beds are near large trees and soon the leaves will fall.

What do others do about putting red mulch during fall season?

Do you put a filter of some sort to catch the fall leaves so they
don't cover up the mulch?

Is it suggested to mulch after the leaves are done falling?

What about running the blower ? Will it blow away the mulch also?

The mulch we have used so far is the red colored mulch from Garden
Plus.

Please let me have your advice!!

THANKS!
