Laplace Weather and Soil: What It Means for Mulch

About 75 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Schedule your delivery onto firm ground so the truck can unload without rutting.

Only about 5 days a year drop below 32°F. The work window is long, and ground heave from freezing is not a concern. With no hard freeze to work around, the timing question is moisture rather than season.

Soils mapped in the Laplace area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. Expect to need more base stone under the surface layer. The ground around Laplace is in hydrologic group C, which takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place under the mulch.
