The mulch is sold for bedding for domestic animals. It is made from softwood, and I decided to use it for mulch this year. It is easy to lay and appears to be ideal. Cost per bag is about seven dollars. To cover the area in the photos three bags were utilized. One bag fills the wheelbarrow.

There was sufficient rain yesterday so the mulch was laid to keep moisture from evaporating to some degree. There are few weeds in my garden, so weed control is not the primary use.
