I have several medium sized pine trees growing in my yard. There is currently grass growing all around them but I would like to make it into a mulch bed where I could put grass clippings and other yard debris which would also make it much easier to mow around. I do not want to put up any kind of border around the bed as it will be rather large so I was planning on just digging a small trench around the area to act as a border. I also do not want to put down landscaping cloth because of the large area. My main questions are: do I need to kill the existing grass in the bed or will it just die as it gets buried with grass clippings (if I do need to kill the grass what is the best way to do that - Roud up)? Also, do grass clippings make for a good mulch for pines or do I need to add additional types of mulch?
