Soil - Mulch 2

Q and A

By Groundskeeper

Question: Monday, November 20, 2000

I am considering using newspaper for a winter mulch. Will this prove to be a mistake or not?

Answer:

Newspaper mulch is frequently used to kill weeds by completely covering an area. For mulching around perennials and shrubs I would recommend a leaf or compost mulch after freezeup
