Rich, dark mulch that makes your landscaping pop. Long-lasting color, excellent moisture retention, and weed suppression—delivered right to your driveway.
More than just good looks—black mulch delivers serious performance for your landscape
Deep black color creates dramatic contrast against green plants, colorful flowers, and light-colored stones. Makes your landscaping look professionally designed.
Reduces water evaporation by up to 70%. Your plants stay hydrated longer, meaning less watering and lower water bills during hot Texas summers.
Insulates soil from extreme heat and cold. Keeps roots cool in summer and protected in winter, promoting healthier plant growth year-round.
A 3-4 inch layer blocks sunlight from reaching weed seeds, dramatically reducing weed growth. Spend less time pulling weeds, more time enjoying your yard.
As it decomposes, black mulch adds organic matter to your soil, improving structure and fertility. It's a slow-release soil conditioner.
Our color-enhanced black mulch holds its rich color for 12+ months, unlike cheap mulch that fades to gray in weeks. One application lasts the whole season.
Versatile enough for any landscaping project around your home
The dark backdrop makes flowers absolutely pop. Whether you have roses, petunias, or native Texas wildflowers, black mulch creates a gallery-worthy display.
Create professional-looking tree rings that protect roots, retain moisture, and prevent lawn mower damage. Extend 3-4 feet from the trunk for best results.

Create soft, cushioned pathways through your garden. Black mulch defines walkways beautifully and is comfortable underfoot.
Soft landing surface for play areas. Our double-shredded mulch is free of large chunks and provides cushioning for active kids.
Define borders between lawn and shrub beds. Creates clean lines and reduces trimming work by keeping grass from creeping into beds.

Apply in late spring after soil has warmed up, or in fall to protect plants over winter. Avoid mulching when soil is frozen or waterlogged.
Leave a 2-3 inch gap between mulch and plant stems or tree trunks. Mulch piled against bark ("volcano mulching") causes rot and disease.
More isn't always better. Stick to 3-4 inches max. Too much mulch can suffocate roots and create a water barrier that prevents rain from reaching soil.
Each year, add 1-2 inches of fresh mulch on top rather than removing old mulch. This builds healthy soil over time and saves money.
