I've noticed the various kinds of mulch-cedar, pine, eucalyptus, even rubber
mulch (expensive).
what's the best kind of mulch to use for weed control in a flower garden?

i am in tropical australia but mulch is mulch and in my experience pine or eucalypt works a treat and smells good too boot. just put in plenty of nitrogen to counteract the effect of the mulch 'soaking up the goodness' as it breaks down, blood and bone or manure is ideal.
