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.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Tree staking should provide temporary support only for Mount Vernon plantings that genuinely cannot stand alone in wind, not become permanent fixtures. Remove all stakes after one growing season maximum. Trees allowed to flex naturally in wind develop significantly stronger trunks, better taper, and more extensive anchoring root systems than staked specimens.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In Mount Vernon, a 3-inch layer of shredded hardwood mulch applied each spring dramatically reduces weed germination by blocking light from reaching Knox County's silt loam. Pull existing weeds before laying mulch, and keep it slightly away from plant crowns, our roughly 40 inches of annual rainfall creates enough moisture that piled mulch against stems invites rot and pest problems throughout the growing season.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Clean, defined bed edges in Mount Vernon do more than improve curb appeal, they stop aggressive turf grasses from migrating into ornamental beds, a persistent problem in silt loam soils where runners spread quickly. Cut a crisp 3 to 4 inch deep edge each spring with a half-moon edger before your last frost around April 25. Maintained consistently after mowing, sharp edges dramatically reduce hand-weeding time throughout the season.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

What bulk mulch depth works best for flower beds in Mount Vernon?

In Mount Vernon, 2 to 3 inches is ideal for ornamental beds. Knox County's silt loam retains moisture well, so exceeding 3 inches can trap too much water around plant crowns, especially given our 40 inches of annual rainfall. Refresh mulch each spring just before the April 25 last frost to lock in soil moisture and suppress emerging weeds through the summer growing season.

Answer

Should I amend the soil in my Mount Vernon yard before installing raised beds?

Mount Vernon's native silt loam is fairly fertile and workable, so extensive amendment isn't always necessary. A top-dressing of bulk compost tilled into the top 6 inches at the base of your raised bed encourages earthworm activity and helps bridge the interface between the bed fill and native soil, improving drainage and preventing a perched water table from forming beneath your planting area.

Answer

When is the best time to order bulk river rock for a drainage project in Mount Vernon?

Early spring, just before the April 25 last frost, or early fall are ideal times to install river rock drainage channels in Mount Vernon. Fall installation lets you confirm proper drainage function before winter freeze-thaw cycles begin around October 15. Knox County's silt loam can develop pooling issues over time, so addressing drainage proactively before wet seasons protects both your plants and your foundation.
