I've been merrily raking up autumn leaves and chucking them onto my borders, presuming that they would be suitable as a mulch of sorts. Is this OK, or am I going to regret it?
ATM there's not much in the beds. It's all been dug over and manured etc, and covered with anti-weed membrane with some bark chippings to disguise and hold down the membrane. I'm cutting away the membrane as I plant up the beds, and leaving the chippings (and autumn leaves) as mulch around the new plantings.
