I just think it looks the best. And it would be darker than the red cedar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-mulch#post-1621812 Thu, 08 May 2014 14:57:58 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1621812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think black would look nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-mulch#post-1621804 Thu, 08 May 2014 14:54:57 +0000 regberadaisy 1621804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Thenetexan: oh, interesting. Thanks for the heads up! My ILs used to get black mulch from the town. But it's the shredded kind; the town takes old yard debris and grounds it up and sells it cheap back to residents as mulch. I'm hoping they still do this because it was cheap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-mulch#post-1621793 Thu, 08 May 2014 14:50:26 +0000 Thenetexan 1621793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Look into the black mulch before buying. I had a landscaper recently tell me that the chemical content is heavy. I didn't do my own research though, so I could be wrong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-mulch#post-1621792 Thu, 08 May 2014 14:50:18 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1621792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Black or dark brown would look nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-mulch#post-1621788 Thu, 08 May 2014 14:48:35 +0000 regberadaisy 1621788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I love red cedar mulch! It worked great in our old home because we had white vinyl siding. But in our current home I'm not sure it would work. I'm thinking a black mulch might look nicer.</p> <p>What do you think? What color mulch do you have in your yard? </p> [attach=1325/14/n59tp0.600x450.20140508_150931.jpg]
