 Double Ground Hardwood Bark
A premium double-ground hardwood bark that is a longtime favorite choice of professional landscapers. Composed primarily of oak species bark, its consistent texture and rich dark color enhance any landscape by contrasting with flowers, foliage, shrubs and trees.
When spread correctly, ground hardwood bark helps to conserve moisture, prevent soil erosion, suppress weed growth, and control soil temperature to moderate the freeze-thaw cycle. This plant-friendly bark breaks down faster than mulch made from wood fiber so that as it decomposes, vital organic content is added to the soil beneath. |
Shredded Hardwood Bark

This bark mixture breaks down more quickly than wood fiber mulch, adding vital organic content to the soil for plants to feed on. When spread correctly, this shredded hardwood bark can help moderate soil temperature, conserve moisture, prevent erosion, suppress weed growth.
