What is the difference between colored wood mulch and bark mulch?
The colored wood mulch is made from seasoned hard woods that we dye on site. The nice thing about this product is that it will hold its color all season. The bark mulch comes to us directly from the saw mill in the form of single-shredded bark. That product is extremely inconsistent and can have large pieces in it. Therefore, we double grind it here to ensure consistency and quality. The double shredded bark is medium to dark brown in color. It will begin to turn a grayish-white in six to eight weeks and should be cool to the touch before it is placed around plants.
