Seconds wool as an insulating mulch to protect the earth from the sun, wind and rain when new plants are establishing themselves into a new area of bare soil - healthy soils always cover themselves asap, so help soil keep protecting itself by providing a thick insulation layer of a natural fibre

These wool fibres are raw, greasy, unwashed and lanolin rich which maintains their nutrient richness that is released gradually over time, back in to the soil where it needs to be

As we water our plants, or the rain falls it rinses nutrients from these natural fibres and they begin to decompose, putting their carbon stores back into the soil

Insulating roots from the sun, wind and excessive rain, wool holds half its own weight in water which acts like a sponge, slow releasing moisture over a longer period of time

Suppressing weeds by covering the surface, wool mulch helps maintain rows of seed and seedlings to grow more of our intended crops and reducing competition for sun, light and nutrients

Useful in pots and containers, seed rows, trees, shrubs, hedge plants etc, slugs and snails are not keen to tackle fluffy fibres too !
