Black Hardwood Mulch

Black Hardwood Mulch is made from shredded hardwood bark and dyed with safe, non-toxic colorants to provide a rich, dark color that makes plants stand out. Spreading this mulch over garden beds helps keep soil moist, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. As it breaks down slowly over time, it adds organic matter to the soil. It's great for use around flowers, shrubs, and trees, giving your landscape a clean and polished appearance.
