oftheyeai Due to adequate lam
fall in lecen: weeks in most
paits of the county, now would
be a good t,me to apply the
mulch in oidei to maintain this
moistuie for the balance of the
summei This is especially tiue
in new plantings wheie the soil
has been disturbed this giowmg
season Mulch not only conserves
moistuie, but eliminates the
weeding problem Materials such
as peat moss, tan bark, lotten
sawdust, pebbles, 01 lawn clip
pings may be used however, the
mulch should not be placed
against ornamental plants, leave
several inches of open space
around the shrub or tree trunk.
