Winter Mulch

Earth Cycle's Winter Mulch benefits all kinds of soils as it is perfect for providing natural frost protection to roots and enhances existing soil as it breaks down over time.

It can bring vitality to any garden by easing heavy clay soils and making them workable, building structure of light soils, enhancing water retention, reducing loss of nutrients (leaching) and stimulating beneficial soil life. It is fully compliant to PAS100 standard.
