About Red Hardwood Mulch

Red Hardwood Mulch is made from shredded hardwood bark and dyed with safe, non-toxic red colorants. This mulch adds a bright, attractive color to your garden beds and landscapes, making plants stand out. Besides its decorative appeal, it helps retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and protect roots from temperature extremes. As the mulch breaks down over time, it adds organic matter to the soil, improving soil health. Using Red Hardwood Mulch is an easy way to refresh the look of your outdoor spaces while benefiting your plants.
