MULCH & ROCK
Bring your landscaping back to life with new mulch or rock ground covers
If you want to improve the appearance of your garden or landscape bed as well as its health, consider adding or refreshing your mulch or rock ground covering. Leisure Lawn works with homeowners in Tulsa, Oklahoma and surrounding areas to determine the best mulch or rock for your landscaping based on more than just appearance. One great thing about new mulch — or rock — is that it can make your landscaping look new again after many years. If you prefer another type of protective covering such as straw or wood chips, then we can certainly accommodate you and your tastes. We simply present your options and then schedule a time to deliver and install the materials.

Important benefits of mulch and rock protective covering
One of the most important benefits of landscape protective coverings is that they provide a layer of insulation against extremely hot or cold temperatures. This allows the soil to retain more moisture so the plants remain strong and healthy, as well as the soil itself. Rock and mulch also help to keep diseases out of gardens and landscape beds and reduces the occurrence and growth of weeds.
Your mulch, rock, or other protective covering needs regular replenishing after we install it for the first time. Depending on your needs, an annual or bi-annual schedule is usually adequate, but we will let you know for certain after we finalize the plans for your new protective covering.
