Best Answer

Usually mulch is used to cover areas where weeds grow. These weeds, if allowed to grow, will typically sap nutrients away from your desired plants. Using mulch will actually help your plants stay alive if applied correctly to stop weeds from growing and choking the roots of your plant.

As long as you don't smother your plants with mulch, it should not kill them.

Why do plants need mulch?

Mulch helps plants a lot, when you spread mulch around the plant leaving one to two inches away from main stem or trunk it protect the roots just on the surface of the ground from the weather either freezing or hot. Mulch helps also by keeping the top area around the plants from drying out too fast, this is especially helpful if you grow ferns or moisture loving plants. You can use bark pieces (tiny or bigger chunks) leaves, sawdust/wood shavings.
