[QUOTE="Durgan, post: 82384, member: 1752"]
Mulch aged about a year from ground up deciduous trees is my preference. But even a mixture of evergreen in the mix is acceptable. The chips are porous allowing air and water free access, and stay in place during heavy rains. Chips are available almost everywhere, since pruning of trees is always an ongoing business, and the purveyors have to get rid of their chips.

I have just finished covering most of my garden and need one more yard to complete the effort. I use the mulch for moisture retention. It is rototilled in every Fall after the growth is finished, and come Spring there is little left. I add a sprinkle of urea, nitrogen, to assist in breakdown, but it is probably not necessary.
