What is strulch?

Strulch is a straw based mulch – this is a mineralised straw garden mulch. It’s light and easy to use. It’s a nice looking dark brown colour so it won’t stand out like some mulches can.
Use around frost tender perreniels for protection.
Add it to a depth of 3 cm.
Lightweight so easy to move bags about whilst putting the strulch on the ground.

Strulch has a neutral pH and can be used throughout the garden on borders, raised beds, around cultivated fruit and on vegetable plots
