Mulch is a great way to help both yourself and your plants. Good quality mulch properly applied will keep the plants roots cool, conserve moisture in the soil, and greatly reduce weed growth. Weeds not only look bad but steal vital nutrients and moisture from the soil. From your perspective it looks great too!
Bark or wood based mulches are what's most commonly used. It is relatively inexpensive, attractive and durable, and easy to apply. While it is durable it will break down over time and add a fantastic amount of organic matter to build the soil for even happier plants over time. We sell two different types in bulk (by the cubic yard). "Red" is the classy, cinnamon colored mulch. This is a somewhat bright mulch, but not the nearly fluorescent pained woodchips one sometimes sees at used car lots. To start out 2011 the price for Red is $44.95 per cubic yard. Mulch prices may prove to be rapidly changing in early 2011 in response to diesel prices. The other one is Black. Black is a rich and deep colored, like semisweet chocolate chips. It is great for making the plants show up extremely well. The 2011 price for Black is $42.95 per cubic yard with the same possible price changes noted above.

A note on much volume: Mulch is sold by the "yard" which is more accurately a cubic yard, or an cube 3 feet by 3 feet by 3 feet. Seems straight forward enough. Unfortunately our customers tell us that some unscrupulous sellers seem to have a smaller bucket on their tractor than we do. And it can be very hard to tell what an accurate measurement is. Put another way, if you were to order and pay for 100 cement blocks, but only 75 were delivered, you would feel as if you had been ripped off. As well you should! We had one customer come in to get a pickup truck load of mulch. He said he wanted 3 yards. We told him there was no way we could fit 3 yards in his small truck. He then said he has been getting it at {name deleted} for years and THEY can fit 3 yards in. We ended up loading his truck with two yards. He said that was the same volume the other place had been calling 3 yards all these years. The moral of the story? Don't be lured in by unrealistically low prices per yard. What really matters is how much it costs you to finish the project. So whether you get it form us, or somebody else, make sure you are comfortable with the supplier.
