More Than Mulch
The Living Earth More than Mulch is a non-floating Rain Garden mulch. Included in the blend is Living earth Organic certified Compost which anchors the mulch so it will not float and block drains. Compost adds nutrients over time to the raingarden soil beneath and suppresses weeds, promoting successful plant growth. This mulch blend rated highly with Landcare in their study of mulch performance when gardens are flooded.

- Use Living Earth More Than Mulch around plants to a depth of minimum 50mm
- Perfect for locking in moisture at the roots of the plants and keeping weeds out
- Placed over a hard difficult soil, the compost in More than Mulch works down and interacts with it, encouraging worms to the surface to 'open up' the texture.
