Dawson Landscape Group LLC.
Answer: Late spring
Explanation: Plan to add mulch in late April. Mulch slows down soil warming so don't apply it before you have had some warm weather. Also, you need to wait until all your perennials have emerged so you don't bury them. Mulch serves 5 purposes. It helps the soil retain moisture and remain cooler in hot weather, it breaks down over the season and feeds your soil, it helps prevent weeds, and it looks uniform and neat
GLOBAL ADVANTAGE LANDSCAPING SERVICES, LLC
Answer: Early fall
Explanation: In our state of Florida, we have the pleasure of almost year round landscape plantings. Due to the influx of seasonal residents here, many of our customers prefer to install mulch in the Fall months. Florida trees and shrubs here can benefit from a fall installation as it promotes Fall manufacturing of leaves on trees and shrubs (more water to plants) so they can flourish during the Fall/Winter season. Certain of our plants (trees, shrubs, perennials) do rely on a Spring florish as they would up north. However, some of our plants also benefit from a Fall flourish as well. Fall mulching helps these plants receive water that they might not get should Fall rains be minimal. The mulch holds water and releases it to the plants to assist in nourishment they need during periods of drowth/lesser rain.
