Autumn leaves as mulch?
"Dioclese" NONE wrote in message
m... "Newbie" wrote in message ... As a new gardener in soon-to-freeze Midwest, I have noticed the following irony: We as well as our neighbors are raking bags upon bags of autumn leaves from the front and back yards and discarding them. At the same time we are buying mulch to protect newly planted perennials during the winter. An obvious question is, could we use those leaves as mulch? I get enough to make as thick a layer as needed? So far that I read in the responses visible to this news reader, only David E. Ross used the term mulch properly in among all their responses. Others were referring to compost, not mulch. They, or at least one of them, should have started a new thread if they wanted to talk about leaves used in compost. Huh? Most of the responses were about mulching. |
