A bed of autumn leaves can take a while to decompose. Before you use them as mulch, shred them. Run your lawnmower over recently raked piles of leaves and spread the mulch in your garden. In spring, these shredded leaves can simply be turned under to become rich, organic matter in the soil.
Happy Gardening,

New gardens are lovely but there is just something about a garden that has see so much history. Old photographs, especially crisp black and whites tell so much with so little!
