In addition to the work with getting the donated raspberry plants in the ground, we also did a lot of mulching. With the exception of the purple raspberry bushes we planted in September, I added a bag of mulch for each of the apple trees and the blueberry bushes in the orchard as well as the pear tree, fig trees, and artichokes in the front bed. The whole idea is to help each of the plants survive the winter, particularly since none of them are what I would call "well established."
I also spread about 6 bags along the pool fence where Wifey wants to plant Four O'Clock seeds.
I would have purchased the mulch in bulk, but it didn't occur to me for some reason.
