Default putting new mulch in fall

Why? If someone wanted a lurid colour in the garden then wouldn't it make
more sense to use coloured pebbles? TMWOT, coloured bark/wood fibre would
scream in a way that pebbles wouldn't.


The dyed mulch is one evil, but putting colored pebbles in a bed is
quite another. I've read many times of people cursing while trying to
get those pebbles out after they've proven to be a miserable mulch to
work with.

Mulch has 3 definitions. Guess the manufacturer was using one other than
what the buyer thought it was.
