KARBONTM - Leaf Mulch
KARBONTM is a wood mulch alternative
The Rich brown color will not fade during hot summer months as most wood mulches do.
KARBONTM slowly degrades into the soil over the season, enriching the soil.
KARBONTM is a food of choice for earthworms which help to aerate the soil.
No need for spring or late fall clean-up. Just apply additional KARBONTM when re-mulching.
Most traditional wood mulch fades and requires removal before re-mulching.
KARBONTM serves not only as a beautiful mulch alternative, but also as a natural soil amendment.
