Horticulture/Shredded Leaves

Shredded Leaves are often considered to be the best organic mulch available for use in the garden. Leaves contain a great number of ../Nutrients/, are lightweight, and biodegrade quickly.

The major disadvantage to shredded leaves is that they are almost never available commercially, so the gardener generally has to make them herself using either a leaf shredder or by running them over with a lawn mower.
