What you think about Strulch. We are always keen to hear what our customers say about Strulch. Thank you.

Essential in our garden.

I have used Strulch for many years. It is an excellent weed suppressant, and slug deterrent. We use it in all parts of the garden. It stops annual weeds, and perennials become easier to remove. I also use it around plants in the vegetable garden. Squash plants were being shredded by slugs until I applied Strulch. We cannot use slug pellets as we have slow worms and grass snakes who help reduce the slug population - but not enough!

It's wonderful

Strulch really is a wonder product ! . I have recommended it to all my gardening friends. Hope the orders rush in ..... Claire, Devon

Superb service and a good product

Placed my order for a pallet of 25 bags 4 days ago and received delivery today via their transporter Palletways. Superb service end to end, and the delivery driver couldn't have been more helpful.

I tend to alternate mulching of my garden with manure or Strulch every couple of years or so. The manure is used to seriously improve the quality of my clay soil but is very heavy to move. Strulch on the other hand is extremely light and a very good weed suppressant. It costs half the price to buy Strulch in bulk like this and is worth splashing out of only to save your back, laying it down, and months of weeding. I usually mulch in late December when there are few weeds and before my snowdrops and other late Winter bulbs start to like their heads through the ground.

Tulips and Strulch

Once our tulips are planted we put a heavy layer of strulch over them. It not only makes the beds looked great but seems to discourage squirrels from digging them up.

Brilliant stuff and not expensive

I went on a course at David Austin and they told us about Strulch. I thought I would give it a go, and I must say that in a gardening sense this is a lifesaving product! It is light weight, easy to use and the minute it went on my garden the plants seemed to respond. So many people have commented on how good the garden looks. I used to have to take a whole week off work in the spring just to get on top of the weeds but this product appears to have all but solved that. It is brilliant stuff and not expensive. I recommended it to a colleague and we are both Strulch converts. :)

Spring cleaning

Strulch has kept the weeds down every bit as promised and topping it up in spring sets the hellebores and bergenias off nicely.

The best mulch I've used

Strulch is best mulch for all-round performance I've used yet. Have tried various barks, coir and straw, and stulch performs better, considering cost as well. I use strulch for containers where I grow veg and for hanging baskets, as well as beds. Worms love the stuff - my containers teem with worms, and it helps greatly with moisture retention in hanging baskets and looks nice as well - the individual pieces are small enough to use it for even very small containers. When moist, it also helps to deter cats from digging in beds...

Hedgehog highway

Hello Jackie, Thank you for your email, Yes I do have a hedgehog highway in and out of my garden with 3 nesting boxes and 4 feeding stations, which have been in use since Nov 2019 and are still in use, I usually order a whole or half pallet of Strulch, but this year it will be later in the autumn / winter when I get organised to order it.

Breakthrough in weed control

At long last I have an effective measure against unwanted weeds. Strulch saves huge amounts of weeding allowing more time for productive gardening. It is easy to apply, smells nice and looks good.

Amazing

Have used strulch on my allotment for about 5 years now. It does exactly as described and smells amazing.

Doesn't blow away. Great product.

I live in a very exposed position by the sea. Having tried bark chipping which blow off in high wind I tried Strulch and it stays very well. I have place an order for a further batch to top up the Strulch after 2 years . Great product which saves me loads of tedious weeding

Reduces workload

We are approaching 80, still love our garden but with 1/2 acre, mostly herbaceous borders, it is now a challenge. However, Strulch has virtually eliminated weeding, keeps moisture in our sandy soil & improves the soil as it integrates after a couple of years. Visitors,when our garden is open, can't believe how good it looks & how we manage! Brilliant.

Discourages slugs and snails

This picture shows a new bed created in May after thick undergrowth consisting of blackthorn and scrub had been removed , covered in Strulch and planted out with semi exotic perennials and annuals. This is the view three months later. We’re really pleased with the results we get with Strulch as it discourages slugs and snails and really helps to keep weeds at bay. But best of all the plants throughout the garden are in such good condition as they’re being fed as well. We’re telling all our gardening friends to use it. Now please can your husband invent a product that will stop moles from ruining the lawn!

Better than other mulches

We have used Strulch in all areas of our garden for a number of years and find it much better than any other type of mulch. We live in Northern Ireland where we get a lot of rain and found that moss grew on bark mulch. We don't have any such problem with Strulch. It is light to use but doesn't blow away. We use it round flowers , fruit and vegetables and even in pots. It cuts down on a lot of weeding. We would highly recommend it. R.McF.

Strulch in a changing climate

Strulch is easy and pleasant to handle, stays in-situ even though we have a fairly exposed garden, looks attractive and is an effective weed suppressant. However, the key benefits are improved soil structure, a very healthy microbiome (with an increase in earthworms and other beneficial invertebrates) and improved resilience to changing rainfall patterns.

Here in Devon, we seem to be experiencing more intense winter rainfall whilst summers are marked by prolonged periods with little or no rainfall. The strulch acts as a very effective buffer, stopping the heavy winter rain compacting the soil surface and also moderating the percolation of water through the soil, preventing leaching of nutrients.

During periods of low rainfall, the strulch significantly reduces surface evaporation and allows what moisture is in the soil to remain accessible to plant roots.

My favourite mulch

This is my favourite mulch for retaining moisture and reducing weeds. It seriously reduces the amount of weeding needed in the crazy growing time of May and June. Done just in time before bulbs appear.
