Since I can't buy bark mulch up here, I only mulch with leaves. Sometimes, I can get rotten hay to put down before I put down my top layer of leaves to help feed the soil.
Basically, since I only have two trees on my property, I go to a friend's place to gather leaves for mulch.
Thanks again for the information. Now, I won't have bags of leaves along the side of the house and can use the leaves as soon as I rake them up.
Smiles,
Lyn
