Why Pea Gravel?

The Benefits of Pea Gravel

More than just good looks—black mulch delivers serious performance for your landscape

🎨

Stunning Contrast

Deep black color creates dramatic contrast against green plants, colorful flowers, and light-colored stones. Makes your landscaping look professionally designed.

💧

Moisture Retention

Reduces water evaporation by up to 70%. Your plants stay hydrated longer, meaning less watering and lower water bills during hot Texas summers.

🌡️

Temperature Control

Insulates soil from extreme heat and cold. Keeps roots cool in summer and protected in winter, promoting healthier plant growth year-round.

🚫

Weed Suppression

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.

🌱

Soil Enrichment

As it decomposes, black mulch adds organic matter to your soil, improving structure and fertility. It's a slow-release soil conditioner.

⏰

Long-Lasting Color

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.

Applications

Flower Beds

The dark backdrop makes flowers absolutely pop. Whether you have roses, petunias, or native Texas wildflowers, black mulch creates a gallery-worthy display.

🌳

Tree Rings

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.

🏠

Foundation Beds

Perfect for beds against your home. The dark color complements any house color while protecting foundation plantings and improving curb appeal.

🚶

Garden Pathways

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.

Expert Advice

Pro Tips for Pea Gravel

Get the most out of your mulch with these professional landscaping tips

💡 Use Landscape Fabric

Always install over heavy-duty landscape fabric to prevent stones from sinking into soil and weeds from growing through.

💡 Contain with Edging

Pea gravel migrates easily due to its round shape. Steel or aluminum edging is essential to keep it where you want it.

💡 Right Depth for Paths

Use 2-3 inches for walking paths. Too shallow exposes the fabric; too deep makes walking difficult and unstable.

💡 Avoid Slopes

Pea gravel rolls and migrates on slopes. Use angular crushed granite or larger rock on any inclined areas instead.
