The website was intuitive and easy to navigate. The material was delivered the date and time it was scheduled, it was dropped off in the area i had specified on top of my tarp with no issues.

I ordered soil, the Gardening Blend that I received had too many plastic and metal pieces for my liking thus lowering the score from a perfect 5/5 to a 4/5

Delivery was seamless, and the truck driver took care to deposit the mulch on the tarp I had laid out. The mulch itself is much better quality than my previous experiences with bagged mulch.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Those big canopy trees in Bret Harte make dense shade, and turf will keep failing under them no matter how much water you throw at it. Convert the dripline zone to a mulched bed planted with heuchera, hellebore, and clivia, all of which thrive in Zone 9b shade. Keep bark pulled back four inches from the trunk flare, and skip the landscape fabric so feeder roots can breathe.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Mature trees define Bret Harte, and their surface roots make tilling impossible. Instead of digging, build up. Add two to three inches of compost over the root zone, plant shade tolerant material in small pockets between roots, then mulch the whole area. Never bury a trunk flare or add more than a few inches of soil over established roots at one time, or you will suffocate them.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Older Bret Harte irrigation systems were built for wall to wall lawn, not the mixed beds most homeowners want now. When you convert a section, cap the turf spray heads in that zone and run separate drip on its own valve. Mixing spray and drip on one circuit means either drowning your shrubs or drying out the remaining lawn.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

Will adding mulch under my large Bret Harte shade trees hurt them?

Done correctly it helps considerably. Keep the layer to three inches, pull it four to six inches away from the trunk flare so bark stays dry, and extend it out toward the dripline. What harms trees is deep soil fill, mulch piled against the trunk, and fabric that blocks oxygen exchange to feeder roots.

Answer

What ground cover works in deep shade in Bret Harte?

In Zone 9b shade, try clivia, hellebore, heuchera, autumn fern, and Japanese aralia for structure, with ajuga or dwarf mondo filling gaps. All accept dry summer shade once established. Plant in fall so winter rain settles them in, and mulch between plants until they knit together, usually two growing seasons.

Answer

How do I fix bare dirt patches under my Bret Harte trees?

Stop trying to grow grass there. Roots and dense canopy will always win. Rake out debris, spread an inch of compost, plant a few shade tolerant shrubs and perennials, then cover everything with three inches of bark mulch. The bed reads as intentional immediately and needs a fraction of the water the lawn wanted.
