I have a problem….

I’m a mulch addict.

I love the way mulch looks and feels and how it saves water and just makes everything look so nice and tended.

I think I’ve used about… oh… ah, 40 bags of the stuff so far?

My dog is encouraging me to get more mulch. She likes to go and ride to the Circle K and get it with me.

Wow…. 40 bags at 40 pounds each…

That’s like… ah…. 800 pounds of mulch.

Ahem.

I wonder if there is a 12 step program for mulch addicts?

Beautiful mulch….

I should write a haiku for mulch!

Rainbow Sparkle Butt Pony would approve….

Chewed up Tree Bark
Protects my little moby plants
Saving water too.

ah…. nothing like a little gardening haiku to make things seem even more special…

Doesn’t it make stuff look nice? See how it protects the flowers and all…

And how nice the little orchard looks with it’s mulch bottoms…

  1. Your garden looks wonderful! I came to your blog via Cold Antler Farm. I’m also doing the fiddle challenge. Right now its more challenge, less fiddle!

  2. Mulch is such an awesome, yard essential. It adds curb appeal, while adding many benefits to what it surrounds. The next time you go hog wild on the mulch, you may want to call around to local tree companies. They generally have truck loads of mulch for very cheap. Each spring we get a dump truck load of mulch and it’s usually around 125.00-150.00, delivered. We use it around trees, bushes, shrubs, and this summer I used it around our Intex Metal frame pool with stepping stones. Added a nice touch, plus it helps keep weeds down. We have also used it create walkways with railroad tie wood borders. (Picked them up from the city for free!)
