I used Mulch Mound to have 3 cubic yards of garden soil delivered. The process was easy and I love that I didn't have to call anyone. I placed my order online, picked my delivery date, laid out my tarp and the dirt was delivered. My delivery had to be pushed back, but I was kept informed via text, which was great. So why not 5 stars? The description of garden soil on the website is "A balanced mix of topsoil and organic amendments ready for raised beds, flower gardens, and new planting areas. Good drainage, solid nutrients, easy to work with." What I got was more like fill dirt. It had a lot of gravel, a lot of clay, and random trash mixed in. I didn't test the soil to see if it actually had "amendments" because I already have compost and alpaca manure ready to add, but if I'd known the quality of the dirt was going to be the same as the bagged dirt I bought last year, I probably would have gotten 2 yards of top soil and a yard of leaf compost for better quality, especially since the leaf compost is cheaper. Photo of my mountain of dirt and just some of the trash I found in it.

I had a great experience ordering from Mulch Mound- they offered a quick turnaround and they delivered a generous/heaping 4 cubic yards. Driver was kind and professional, couldn’t have asked for an easier or better experience.

My experience with Mulch Mound was great and super easy. I ordered two yards of screened topsoil and was able to get it delivered within 2 days. They came in my requested time frame (afternoon) and dropped it off where I asked on my driveway. The topsoil was exactly what was advertised, clean with no rocks or other debris. The price was reasonable. I plan to use them again in a couple weeks to order compost for my garden beds.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Deadheading spent blooms redirects Ilchester plant energy from seed production toward new flower development throughout the growing season. Most annuals and many perennials respond enthusiastically to regular deadheading with significantly extended bloom seasons and more abundant flowering overall. The few minutes invested returns weeks of additional color.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Ilchester's proximity to the Patapsco Valley means many yards sit under a dense canopy of mature oaks and tulip poplars. Embrace the shade rather than fighting it, hostas, ferns, astilbes, and bleeding heart thrive in these conditions with minimal inputs. Top-dress shaded beds with 2 inches of finely shredded mulch each spring to keep shallow shade-loving roots cool and consistently moist through dry summer stretches.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Getting mulch depth right matters more than most Ilchester homeowners realize. Two to three inches is the sweet spot, enough to suppress weeds and retain moisture through Zone 7b's hot summers, but not so deep that it suffocates roots or stays perpetually saturated during Ilchester's rainy spring months. Always keep mulch pulled back 2 to 3 inches from tree trunks and shrub stems, as volcano mulching causes long-term bark decay.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

How much bulk mulch should I order for my Ilchester landscape beds?

Calculate square footage of your beds and divide by 100 to get the cubic yards needed for a 3-inch application. Ilchester's silt loam soil benefits from annual replenishment since organic mulch breaks down and improves soil structure over time. Ordering in bulk saves significant cost compared to bagged product for any project requiring more than 3 cubic yards.

Answer

Will bulk compost improve the clay-heavy spots in my Ilchester yard?

Absolutely. While Ilchester's base soil is silt loam, low-lying areas often accumulate clay that restricts drainage and root growth. Working 3 to 4 inches of compost into the top foot of soil dramatically improves structure, aeration, and microbial activity. Zone 7b's long growing season means improved soil pays dividends from April all the way through October's first frost.

Answer

What decorative stone works well under Ilchester's large shade trees?

Crushed granite or natural river pebbles work beautifully under mature trees where grass refuses to grow in Ilchester's shaded lots. Stone mulch doesn't decompose, making it ideal in deep shade where organic matter accumulates slowly. Lighter gray or tan tones brighten dark canopy areas and improve curb appeal year-round without requiring the annual replenishment that organic mulch demands.
