Yes - it is a great carbon source!

Is it easy to be broken down? $ d; v; C; b' |$ p6 S
8 Z, W' r0 n# O1 c* N3 c V5 K% T( FNo, it breaks down slowly because of its high C:N. It makes a very attractive mulch as well, so if you have a lot of it I suggest spreading it on top of autumn leaves around trees or shrubs, or at the back of the bed where weeding is a chore.
