Western red cedar bark mulch is a premium organic landscape ground cover made from processed cedar bark. Its rich reddish-brown color and natural cedar aroma bring warmth, texture, and a polished appearance to garden beds, tree rings, pathways, foundation plantings, and commercial landscapes.
The fibrous bark texture helps the mulch knit together after installation, creating consistent coverage and reducing movement from wind, rainfall, and surface runoff. This makes western red cedar bark mulch especially useful around sloped beds, landscape borders, and other areas where lighter mulch may shift more easily.
Western red cedar is naturally durable and resistant to decay, allowing the mulch to maintain its texture and appearance longer than many softer wood mulches. Its slow breakdown rate provides dependable coverage while reducing how frequently the material needs to be replenished.
The mulch helps conserve soil moisture by limiting evaporation from the ground surface. This allows the soil to remain more evenly moist between watering and supports a more stable root environment around trees, shrubs, flowers, and ornamental plants.
A properly applied layer also helps regulate soil temperature by insulating the root zone from rapid heating and cooling. This added protection can support healthier growing conditions during hot weather, cooler periods, and seasonal temperature changes.
Western red cedar bark mulch helps suppress weed growth by reducing the amount of sunlight that reaches the soil surface. When installed at an appropriate depth, it creates a cleaner planting area and helps reduce routine landscape maintenance.
Its coarse, organic structure also helps protect exposed soil from erosion caused by rainfall, irrigation, and runoff. As the mulch gradually decomposes, it contributes organic matter back into the soil, helping improve structure, moisture retention, and long-term biological activity.
The natural cedar aroma and reddish-brown coloring make this mulch an attractive choice for high-visibility residential and commercial projects. It pairs well with green foliage, flowering plants, stone, brick, wood, and other natural landscape materials.
Western red cedar bark mulch combines long-lasting color, dependable soil protection, and a distinctive natural appearance, making it a practical premium option for landscapers, homeowners, builders, and property managers.
