This is a very interesting topic which I won't comment on because my level
of knowledge is nowhere where Bill & Butch's is.
However, I will caution placing mulch atop dead foliage in the fall. Most
gardening and/or horticultural articles recommend clearing the garden of dead
foliage and debris due to the potential of "disease." The covering with
mulch gives the mold, fungi, bacteria, and/or virus an excellent media for
further growth.
