Peat is a type of organic mulch that is commonly used for the triune purpose of fertilizing, retaining moisture, and prohibiting weed growth in a flower bed or garden. It can be laid down on top of the bed or mixed into the soil. It can also be used in potted plants. Peat is also used for a fuel in many parts of the world, and is the precursor to bituminous and brown coal.
