Autumn’s cool breeze makes it the perfect time to refresh your yard in the Southeast. At Woerner Turf and Landscape Supply in Mobile, AL; Baton Rouge, LA; and Pensacola, FL (via Gulf Kist Sod), we’ve got mulch, pebbles, and pine straw to suit any project. Here’s why fall is ideal and how each ground cover can elevate your landscape.

Why Fall?

Cooler temps (60s to low 80s) make working outside comfortable, while steady rains help new ground cover settle. Fall setups control weeds, protect soil, and prep your yard for a stunning spring.

Mulch: The Soil Booster

  • Perks: Locks in moisture, enriches soil, and fights weeds. Its rich colors—brown to red—pop against fall foliage.

  • Why Fall?: Insulates roots from early frosts and preps soil for spring planting.

  • At Woerner: We stock natural and dyed mulch in bulk or bags at all locations.

Pebbles: Sleek and Durable

  • Perks: Low-maintenance, no decomposition, and great drainage for rainy Gulf Coast days. Neutral stones suit any style.

  • Why Fall?: Easy to spread in cooler weather, perfect for paths or rock gardens.

  • At Woerner: Find river rocks to pea gravel at our Pensacola store and beyond.

Pine straw: Southern Charm

  • Perks: Lightweight, affordable, and acidifies soil for plants like azaleas. Its golden hue screams fall.

  • Why Fall?: Insulates roots and spreads easily on crisp days.

  • At Woerner: Fresh bales available in Mobile, Baton Rouge, and Pensacola.

Which to Choose?

  • Mulch for soil health and color.

  • Pebbles for lasting, low-effort style.

  • Pine straw for budget-friendly vibes.

Use 2-3 inches of any cover for best results. Mix and match for a custom look!
