Brown mulch is a popular landscaping material made from shredded bark, wood chips, or other natural materials dyed with environmentally safe colorants. It is commonly used to enhance the appearance of garden beds, suppress weed growth, retain soil moisture, and regulate soil temperature. Its natural, earthy color blends well with a variety of landscapes, providing a clean and uniform look. Brown mulch also helps prevent soil erosion and adds organic matter as it breaks down, improving soil health over time. It’s ideal for flower beds, tree rings, and around shrubs or walkways.
