Daltons Garden Mulch is a combination of fine shredded bark and bark fibres. It provides the same benefits as granulated bark but also has the added feature of a natural look and a fibrous structure, making it ideal for exposed or sloping sites.
Acting as a protective blanket, it prevents soil moisture from evaporating during long dry periods and reduces weed growth by making conditions unfavourable for germination.
