Mulch that takes a long long time to breakdown?
Hi All,
I have a 5,000 square foot area that will be used as neighborhood playground. The area was full of weeds, which have been manually removed and has now been covered with a very high quality weed block. As a long term solution, we were interested in using rubber mulch, but the cost was too high ($7,000 to $10,000 at a depth of 2.0 inches). As an alternative, what mulch would you say was the longest lasting / slowest degrading type of mulch (cypress, pine needles, pine bark, cedar, cocoa pods, coconut shells, or etc...). We are needing approximately 32 cubic yards and would prefer not to have to perform as much maintenance. Are there any mulch that do not break down or that break down into matter that doesn't support weed growth? Thank you so much for your advice, |
