What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise this hardwood mulch for its natural, chemical-free formulation, noting it's free of dyes and odors, making it safe for vegetable gardens. Most report it effectively suppresses weeds, retains moisture, and lasts several years while enriching soil. However, some express frustration with inconsistent texture, reporting larger wood chunks and finer particles than previous batches. A few mention bag durability issues and occasional debris. Despite these concerns, most customers consider the quality and organic composition worthwhile and plan to repurchase.

CHUNKS OF JUNK

Would Not Recommend

I chose this particular brand because I read it was the best for Oklahoma wind and rain and can help improved clay soil. This was NOT as pictured— 99% of it is huge chunks of wood, including particle board, plastic, painted wood scraps. The color of bags purchased at the same time on the same pallet are not even close to the same color—one bag dark and the other bag would be light colored. It looks HORRIBLE.

Good product overall

Would Recommend

This is a pretty good product. I like that it isn’t dyed, and it will feed my soil over time. My one complaint is that the amount of shredding is inconsistent. Some bags had mostly really giant pieces of wood and big chunks, which weren’t my favorite. Other bags were shredded more finely and were much better.

Changed color -Faded to blond in days

Would Not Recommend

Bought 60 bags on 5 for $10 mulch and hired helper to spread it. Not enough. Sale over, so bought 20 bags of this full price Timberline 2-cu ft All Natural Hardwood Bark Hardwood Mulch (brown) to finish flower bed around tree. Went on vacation and returned to mulch that faded to BLOND! Lowe's would not replace or refund. Instead I was given a number to call the vendor and deal with them. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! Besides replacing the mulch, I now have to hire someone to spread it since...

Definitely not shredded!

Would Not Recommend

I've bought hundreds of bags of shredded hardwood mulch from Lowe's over the years. Last year I began finding big chunks of wood mixed in with the shredded material. It happened again this spring. I took a bucket of what I collected to the store and they were well aware of the problem. I was told to complain online because management only listens to customers, not employees. No stord credit was offered.

Inconsistent

Would Not Recommend

Earlier I purchased this product and it was TOTALLY different - different color, texture, etc. Now the area bring mulched has two different coverages. Consistency would be great!

Fine

Would Recommend

Decent quality for price, the thinness of the bags themselves is what is the main issue. Very easy to rip/tear/break. Like all bagged mulched, sometimes it can be moldy on the inside.
