Best but can't get it

Would Recommend

We are about to redo our flowerbed. Always used Preen Plus Weed Control Mulch but, couple years ago I had to use a cheaper brand because the red preen was not in stock. Been looking and waiting and still isn't in stock at any Lowes in my district. I hate to do it but I'll have to buy a competitor's brand and add Preen granules. I added my email to be notified when available, but with weather warming, I can't wait any longer. Sure wish I could get a definitive answer as to whether it will or not...

No weed control - full of weed seeds

It’s full of weed seeds. They’re sprouting everywhere. I had used RM 43 to kill everything off before I put this in there. The beds have more weeds in them now than they did before not pleased to pay that much extra to get the weed protection and find out it’s full of weed seeds

Mulch Review

Would Recommend

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.

It’s perfect for ornamental gardens!

Would Recommend

I was looking for a finely cut mulch for a newly redesigned portion of my yard so I took a chance and tried Preen! The color (russet red) was perfect, the cut was just what I wanted and the weed control was a welcome bonus.
