We bought a house last year that has 2 plots for flowers out front. The plots had a few plants in it, and lots of mulch, to keep down the weeds. I understand taht. But this year i want to plant NEW plants, what do i do with the mulch? Scrape it out? sow it into the dirt? pour new dirt on top? I just dont know. Please help.

I would get rid of the top layer scrape it away and get rid of the bottom layers because what is happening is the mulch is creating heat and the amount of moisture creates mold which can be toxic to some plants and possibly to you,(found out the hard way) when doing this make sure you wear the appropriate attire, glasses, gloves, and mask. once you get rid of the old scrape away some of the soil (just a Little) put down some miracle grow top soil then cover back up with the original much that you had put off to the side, and then put down at least 1 to 2 inches of new mulch (same for the old mulch).
