Black Color Enhanced Mulch
Our Black Color Enhanced Mulch has more to offer than just its aesthetic appeal. When you install a solid layer of at least 4 inches of color enhanced mulch to your landscape or garden bed you’re helping to regulate the soil temperature around your plants. Mulch helps to keep the soil warm during cool evenings or winter months, and cool during the heat of the summer.
A mulch layer also:
- regulates moisture levels in the soil by slowing evaporation rates
- combats weed growth by blocking sunlight and preventing weeds from sprouting
- adds organic matter to your soil, improving the soil as the mulch layer decomposes
- adds curb appeal to your home with its rich color and carefully manicured look
Is a Black Color Enhanced Mulch right for you?
With all the options of mulch available you’ll want to select the one that will most improve the quality of your soil and the appearance of your home. Mulches can be made of many materials including wood, rock, and even synthetic materials. To get the most benefit from your mulch choosing a wood option like our color enhanced mulches is your best bet.
Brick homes look great when coordinated with brown or red mulch colors. Remember that when you choose a darker the mulch color, your brightly colored flowers will stand out more drastically in your landscaping design.
A word of caution though is that black mulches can reflect heat, so choosing a lighter color if you happen to live in a particularly warm region can have some benefits.
