Mulch Materials
Hardwood
Made of shredded bark from hardwood trees such as maples and oaks, this sturdy mulch compacts over time so it resists blowing or washing away. Because of its staying power, hardwood mulch is ideal for sloped beds and gardens in wet climates.
Earthgro Hardwood Mulch, also at The Home Depot in selected stores, $2.59 per bag (2 cu. ft.).
