Mulch Installation in Chanhassen, MN

Mulch helps retain soil moisture, suppresses weeds, regulates soil temperature, and enhances the appearance of your landscape beds. It also adds nutrients as it breaks down over time.

We typically work with high-quality shredded hardwood, dyed mulches (chocolate or black), and cedar. We can discuss which option best complements your home's exterior.

For most Minnesota landscapes, a depth of 2 to 3 inches is ideal. This is deep enough to suppress weeds and retain moisture without suffocating the root systems of your plants.

To keep the color vibrant and the weed-suppression effective, we recommend a refresh once a year, typically in late spring or early summer.

Generally, no. We prep the beds by raking down the old layer and removing large debris. Removal is only necessary if the mulch has built up too high or has developed a significant mold issue.
