Choosing the ideal flowers, trees and other plant life to adorn a residential or commercial landscape is among the most important decisions to make in the landscaping process. The natural beauty of the budding flowers and cascading bushes adds an aesthetic appeal that brings monetary value and attractiveness to the property.
Creating meticulously constructed flower beds, gardens and hardscapes around the yard provides a clean and distinctive look to enjoy. However, the final picture is not complete if you don’t include the finishing touch for a polished look: mulch. But with so many options available, how do you decide between organic and inorganic mulch options versus a rock filler?
When trying to give your flower beds and gardens a pristine look, mulch is a great choice for homeowners and landscapers.
Yes, mulch is extremely common, easily accessible and offers numerous benefits for consumers and nature, but there are a few important cons to consider that might make you think twice before you make a final decision.
Rock is a popular choice to line walkways, fill gardens and accent beautiful plants and flowers. The diverse choices available make rocks an ideal choice no matter the region or location. So, why exactly are people all over the nation choosing rocks over organic mulch for their gardening needs?
When planning out your gardening or landscaping project, it might seem like utilizing river rocks instead of mulch might be the right choice. But, before you start picking out rock types, there are a few negatives to consider.
If you’re trying to decide whether mulch or rocks would be the best choice for your landscape project, contacting a professional landscape designer can help make the process a little easier. Their knowledge of plants, soil, and landscape architecture can help you determine which choice will offer the most benefits to your natural surroundings and fit your budget and needs most closely.
