Mulch and flower beds in Orlando, FL

Beds that look finished

Nothing makes a yard look tired faster than faded, thin mulch with weeds coming through. A fresh layer, clean edges and a weeded bed change the whole front of a house in an afternoon.

Mulch does real work in Florida too. It holds moisture in sandy soil, keeps roots cooler through the summer and slows down weeds. Pine bark, pine straw and colored mulch are all common around Orlando, and each gives a different look. Pick the one you like.

What a bed refresh includes

• Weeds outWeeds pulled by the root before anything new goes down.
• Edges cutCrisp bed lines where the beds meet the lawn.
• Fresh mulchLaid at the right depth and kept back from trunks and stems.
• Plants tidiedDead growth cleared and new plants added where you want them.
• Sprinklers checkedHeads raised or adjusted so a new layer does not bury them.

Heads raised, every time

Every new layer of mulch raises the bed a little. After a few years, spray heads that used to clear the bed are buried or blocked, and the plants they were meant to water go dry while the mulch on top stays damp. Because Stimulus Irrigation is a sprinkler company first, the heads in your beds get checked and raised as part of the job, so the beds keep getting water once the work is done.
