I've been mulching palms for awhile now and they seem to be happy with that, but what about trees with flares? Is it a good or bad idea to mulch a tree and cover the flare? say, with leaf or coir mulch?

The term flare is not one I'm familiar with but I assume you mean where the tree is grafted. If that is the case I would not cover it but mulching can only be a good thing ..
