Landscaping Tools
The guidelines for proper mulching suggest that mulch should be applied at a depth of 2 to 4 inches, and spread to the drip line—the outermost extension of the branches. This may be difficult to achieve, so applying mulch as broadly as practical will still benefit plants.

Mulch can have negative effects and should be kept away from the trunk of trees to prevent rotting and provide good air circulation. Applying a new layer of mulch each year creates a buildup that can block oxygen and moisture from reaching the roots. That "fresh" look can be achieved by turning last year’s application with a rake or pitchfork. Another mulching mistake that can kill a tree is "volcano mulching." This describes mulch that has been piled up in the shape of a cone around the base of trees.
