Mulching in Washington's Climate
Washington gets about 44 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout are factors to plan for. With about 72 wet days a year, scheduling the delivery onto firm ground means waiting for a dry spell.
The ground around Washington takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place under the mulch. Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year, so plan the delivery for either side of it.
