Unscreen Mulch

Unscreen mulch is a natural, organic ground cover material that has not been sifted or processed to remove larger pieces, twigs, or debris. This type of mulch is typically produced from shredded bark, wood chips, or other plant material, and is left in its raw, unrefined state.

The unscreened attribute means the mulch contains a mix of particle sizes, which can provide a rustic appearance and excellent moisture retention for garden beds and landscaping projects. Because it is not screened, unscreen mulch is often more affordable and can be applied in areas where appearance is less critical, such as around trees, in woodland gardens, or for erosion control. However, the presence of larger pieces may make it less suitable for high-visibility areas or where a uniform look is desired. Overall, unscreen mulch is valued for its cost-effectiveness, natural look, and ability to suppress weeds and conserve soil moisture in both residential and commercial landscaping.
