Mulch

We sell many different varieties of mulch here at Martin’s Nursery. Most commonly known is the Grade A Cedar, Pine Straw Bales, and the Softscape Mulch.

We had to stop selling our Grade A Cypress for a few reasons. It has become prohibitively too expensive, old growth cypress trees are targeted for the bark, making it unsustainable, and deliveries are not predictable due to sourcing bark. Since the availability of Grade A Cypress is limited, we have decided to sell Grade A Cedar as an alternative. As the picture demonstrates the cedar is superior in looks and color to the Grade A Cypress and the cedar mulch is derived and harvested from managed cedar forest.

The Western Red Cedar is a highly sustainable wood type, being both renewable and biodegradable, and most commonly sourced from the best sustainable managed forests world wide.

Grade A Cedar 3 cu ft bag is $13.99 cover 10 sq. ft.

Grade A Cypress 3 cu ft is $18.99 cover 10 sq. ft. (Currently out of stock)

Pine Straw Bales

We also sell the Pine Straw bales. We have regular or natural color, red dye color, and long leaf pine straw. See the color difference below.

The pine straw is extremely clean, uniform and is our MOST economical and ECO FRIENDLY choice!

1 bale of natural pine straw will cover 50sq.ft., or the same area as 2.5 bags of Grade A Cedar 3 cu. ft.

1 bale of colored pine straw will cover 65sq.ft., or the same area as 5.5 bags of Grade A Cedar 3 cu. ft.

1 bale of longleaf pine straw will cover 65sq.ft., or the same area as 9 bags of Grade A Cedar 3 cu. ft.

Softscape Mulch

Softscape mulch is great to add long lasting color to your flower beds, planting beds, and gardens. It is a colorful, light weight mulch option that looks very similar to pine straw. Adding softscape mulch will brighten up your landscaping.
