Ground Cover

Description
Ground Cover has a mini nugget appearance and is popular for applications requiring a smooth and even appearance, it is 3/8 to 7/8 inch in size. The smaller pieces, or “fines,” are screened out of the medium bark, and is good for steeper slopes or windy areas. It is a better choice for use with our blower truck deliveries.
Using mulches and barks as a cover for landscaping, discourages weeds and helps in moisture retention. A 2-4" application is standard for most coverage needs, it is recommended to replenish this each year.
