Mulch color

Thanks @Ivorythumper

I always get "bright medium (grind) fir". Which is, I guess, Douglas Fir. Readily available in Oregon. I like the red-orange-ness of it against our green grass.

I also have used some river rock in spots. Easy to keep the weeds picked. Leaves do have a way of snuggling down between rocks but what doesn't get blown out with my leaf blower I burn out with my weed torch.

Most common bulk mulch and bark around here is reddish brown cedar. Cheapest is a light coloured poplar/birch mix. I have always used the cedar.

Fresh mulch. We went with the dark brown.

We also added the obligatory trampoline…

Well, trampolines are tres chic.

Beautiful house and property (and gardens!), IT. Thanks for sharing.

Btw you really should do something about that tree overhanging your back yard.

Looks very nice. Cypress?

[89th]

Thanks - cedar. Minnesota Northern White Cedar. Love it in our backyard where it can get shady. Adds some light, lasts a long time, and even keeps some insects away. Oh and smells great. For the front yard garden we'll probably go with a more traditional brown hardwood mulch.
