Mulch is the layer of organic material used to cover the space around and between plantings in a garden bed for aesthetic and practical purposes. Pine straw serves as a unique mulch type since it is made of pine needles, as opposed to bark or wood chips like other mulches.
Pine straw shares benefits with using any mulch, as well as a few particular aspects that make applying it useful in different circumstances. Any mulch will provide an insulating layer over the breathing roots of the plant, as well as a barrier to keep water from evaporating out of the soil. All mulches are nutrient dense, and relatively acidic, which feeds the plants in your garden as it breaks down. The acidity in pine straw is higher than in other mulches, making it ideal for plants that thrive in more acidic soil. With pine straw, the long needles allow for it to knit together tightly, preventing the mulch from leaving the bed, and the soil from eroding. It is also extremely light and easy to spread as well, which will save time and energy on spreading or moving the mulch.
Pine straw can look amazing in any setting, but there are several areas where it really gets the chance to shine. Invoking the feeling of wandering through the forest, pine straw mulch has versatile aesthetic uses in the landscape. If you are looking to improve a shadier area on the property, or one with many trees, pine straw can be used to complement the atmosphere that already exists.
