If you have any old tree stumps on your property, don’t let them just continue to take up space. Instead, you can utilize a stump grinding service to transform those eyesores into hardwood mulch that you can then use as a fun decorative element around your landscaping. In fact, it can also provide a practical solution for protecting your other trees and plants. Here are some unique ways you can utilize the mulch from your old stumps around your yard.

Transform Your Landscaping With Mulch From Tree Stumps

1. Fill Flower Beds

Mulch helps to moderate the temperature of the soil in your flower beds, providing insulation from the harsh winter elements and excessive UV rays. Simply rake the wood chips from your stump into a pile, and spread them over the flower beds in your landscaping to protect plant roots throughout the year.

2. Mulch Around Trees

You can also use old tree stumps to protect any current trees around your property. Spread it around the base of trees to insulate the roots and help the ground retain moisture throughout the winter.

3. Create Unique Pathways

For a more decorative element, you can use mulch from your old tree stumps to fill out a pathway to your garden. Add flagstone or another type of flat rock for the walkway steps; then, add mulch around the exterior.
