Oak Bark Mulch - around Citrus
 

Hi Folks,

I have a bunch of dried Live Oak bark - left over from firewood chopping.
Can I use this bark around my Orange and KeyLime trees as mulch? The bark
is around 6 months old. There are some small moldy areas on the bark.

Thanks,

It's probably fine to use that way. But, if you want to be absolutely sure,
contact your cooperative extension, or browse their publications:
