Many people are now actively working on the issue of covering their beds before winter sets in.

However, it is not enough to simply use covering material: first you need to lay out a special layer of insulation.

What should be used for this purpose?

Leaves

This option is quite good, especially if we are talking about oak leaves. This type of plant remains will not rot.

As a result, the heat will be retained throughout the winter.

Marigolds and other plants

Many summer residents single out such plants as the best. Marigolds can be safely used whole. They will not only perfectly insulate the bed, but also protect the beds from various pests.

You can also use other flowers. You can also choose September flowers.

Moss

It is important to understand that in its natural habitat, moss performs exactly the same function - it insulates the soil. Therefore, it can be safely used.

Bath brooms

This method is interesting, but very effective. Any bath brooms will be a great way to insulate a garden bed.
