About This Product

Beautify your landscape with Earthgro by Scotts Black Mulch. Our bagged mulch uses Scotts Color Advantage to provide year-long color. Made from forest products, this shredded wood mulch helps conserve soil moisture while also preventing weeds by blocking growth and access to sunlight when applied at a 3-inch depth. Plus, this landscape mulch is free from construction debris and is locally made*. Use this colored mulch around trees, shrubs, flowers, or vegetables in gardens and landscapes. Some color fading of exposed material will occur due to natural product degradation. For longest color, keep mulch dry for 24 hours after application. To optimize color, it is recommended to turn or rake the top 1" of mulch every 3-4 months. One 1.5 cu. ft. bag of Earthgro by Scotts Black Mulch covers approximately 6 sq. ft. *Each bag of Earthgro by Scotts mulch is manufactured an average of 100 miles from the stores where it is sold.

            This mulch was exactly what I needed to make my garden area look great. It will also help my plants stay a little cooler during our months.

            At only $2 a bag, you can't go wrong. It spread well and didn't have a lot of trash in it or large chunks. It was only available in two colors (red and dark brown) but the dark brown looks great (see picture).

            Great customer service!
            Purchased 10 bags of mulch today and, in spite of the store being so busy on a Saturday, I was very very impressed with the customer service I received from the gentlemen who loaded the push cart and my car. Thank you Chip, Jabrael, and Bob. Give them a raise and hire more of them! 😊

              This has been my go-to mulch for years. It it better at staying in place in stiff Colorado winds and reduces watering
