Do Not Buy

This mulch not only had rather large chunks of bark in it, it was full of rocks. Some rocks were 2" in diameter but I found at least two 4" rocks per bag. In one bag I found a piece of 4" by 1" piece of pipe. There were also weeds growing in one bag which seriously made me question if there was actually Preen in the mulch.

No odor mulch

Would Recommend

First, it was on sale and included weed control. After a few weeks of having it down, I do see those wild violets growing so the weed control doesn't work. It has nice color and no odor, which is a big plus

Preen makes an excellent product it lays smoothly and evenly unlike cheaper mulches which are not as finely ground.

Don't really know how this will work, but am excited about built in weed control and very excited about the red color. Price was excellent and even got on sale.
