Application of pine Straw Installation
It is recommended that pine straw is applied to your
landscape annually or once a year. This is what we recommend whenever we visit
the area where you need a lawn to be prepared. The following are the methods
that we normally use.
-Evenly distribute the pine straw all through the lawn.
-Plan a depth of up to 3 inches as you distribute it over
the area in order to create a cushion that will make the playground safe.
-Add inch annually for decorative purposes.
-The primary aim of adding on pine straw is so that weed growth can be
prevented and improve the general look of the ground cover.
-For areas where there are walkways or benches where
children usually step on, we increase the mulch to 6 inches.
-When applying the pine straw, we ensure that you leave
about 2 to 3 inches of space away from the base of a tree trunk or shrub. This
discourages rodents from gobbling the tree trunk.
When pine straws begin to break down, they normally acidify
the soil. Therefore, they are suitable for plants that augur well with acidic
soil. Examples of such plants are; hydrangeas, camellias, holly azaleas,
fuchsias, ferns, dogwoods, gardenias, magnolias, fuchsias, and evergreens.
Once our
company has completed the pine straw installation, we ensure that we do
follow-up so as to ensure that your playground remains looking good all through
the year. By so doing, you are assured that your lawn will look beautiful.
