Let's Talk About Mulch

Rodents are always digging under the mulch but the neighbhorhood Siamese has taken a shine to scaring them. I've seen him patiently stalk voles from hole to hole. He can hear their ground vibrations appaently. I currently use lucerne mulch immediately around the roses and then sugar cane mulch for the remainder of the bed. We have a blue tongue lizard that has set up his winter home in the sugar cane mulch. If you pass by the bed in the late afternoon, he can be seen partly out of his home sunning himself - but retreats back if you go too close. I currently use sugar cane for the majority of mulching because it was available at a reasonable price from the hardware store while the lucerne was in small packs from a pet store at a much dearer price. However I found out recently that I may have a wholesale source for buying lucerne from my father's neighbour who grows it. We are hoping that we can 'volunteer' our services in sweeping out/cleaning the shed in return for keeping whatever we can sweep up Kirra |
