Mulch is a material placed over the surface of the soil to keep moisture in and enhance the condition of the soil.Mulching can be very beneficial to the health of your tree. Here are some of the benefits of tree mulching: 

• Mulching reduces water loss from the soil, enhance soil structure, and reduce weed competition. The proper application of mulch can provide a lanscape a nice, well-groomed look. If the wrong material is used, or if mulch is too deep, it can severely harm the tree and other nearby plants.

• Tree mulching helps maintain moisture in the soil. Evaporation is minimised, therefore, the need for regular watering is also minimised.

• Tree mulching is a good weed control. A two- to four-inch layer of mulch will significantly lessen the germination and growth of weeds.

• Tree mulching acts as an insulating blanket. Mulch keeps the soil cooler during summer and warmer during winter.

• Over time, mulching enhances the structure of the soil, soil aeration, and drainage.

• Some types of mulch can enhance soil fertility.
  

• Mulching can prevent certain plant diseases from developing.
  

• It can help facilitate maintenance and can minimise the damage caused by "lawn mower blight" and "weed whackers."
