Pine Bark Mulch

Pine bark mulch is a natural ground cover made from the shredded or chipped bark of pine trees. This organic material is prized for its attractive appearance and ability to enrich soil as it decomposes. The pine attribute gives the mulch a pleasant, earthy aroma and a rich, reddish-brown color that enhances landscape aesthetics.

Pine bark mulch is especially valued for its ability to retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. Its fibrous texture allows for good air and water flow, making it ideal for use around trees, shrubs, flower beds, and garden pathways. In both residential and commercial settings, pine bark mulch is commonly used for landscaping, erosion control, and as a protective layer for plant roots. While it breaks down more slowly than some other organic mulches, it may be lighter and easier to spread, though it can float or wash away on steep slopes or in heavy rain.
