The application is especially beneficial if the material goes around a young tree soon after planting.

How Mulch Improves Landscape Health
Mulch refers to the chips and bits that often cover landscape beds and the area around the base of trees. The material offers several advantages for plants and landscapes, including:
- Weed growth suppression
- Tree root protection against extreme temperatures
- Soil moisture retention
- Protection against landscaping equipment like lawnmowers
Organic mulch can also improve the appearance of trees. It’s available in multiple forms, including wood chips, shredded tree bark, pine needles, and straw.
Professional Mulch Services for New Trees on Commercial Property Help Young Trees Thrive
Last spring, a Spartanburg business owner planted several young cedar trees on the property to improve its curb appeal. The business owner recognized the need to protect the young cedars, so they contacted Schneider Tree Care for mulching services.
The tree care team spent about two hours applying high-quality organic mulch around this client’s cedar trees. Because the professionals had years of industry experience, they knew the appropriate application method.
Instead of unintentionally smothering them by adding a large pile of natural mulch around their bases, they applied a thin, even layer. The team also kept the mulch at least one foot away from the trunk of each tree to ensure healthy root development and prevent fungal growth.
