Black Mulch
$3395 cubic yard
Product Description
Made with all-natural, shredded forest products and long-lasting black colorant. Our color-enhanced landscape mulch is double shredded and screened for consistent 2-3" shreds. All dyes used are pet-safe, non-toxic and biodegradable. Our black dyed mulch is an attractive groundcover for all your landscaping needs such as landscape islands, garden beds, and around trees. Our Black Mulch will give your gardens a rejuvenated and elegant look. The dye will last about one year if installed and maintained properly. It is important that dyed mulches be able to dry completely after installation. Do not install mulch prior to rain. The dye needs at least 8 hours of drying after spreading to cure. For the longest-lasting color, we recommend turning your mulch over once every three to four months.
Colored Mulch Drying Time Tips
- Colored mulch should be applied at a depth of 2 to 3 inches and should slope away from buildings for proper water runoff.
- Mulch might still be damp upon delivery and might not dry completely until spread.
- Use a tarp to protect concrete from staining. An additional tarp is useful to cover your mulch pile to protect from rain.
- Install colored mulch on a sunny day with no rain in the forecast for at least 24 hours.
Colored Mulch Dye Is Safe For Plants, Pets, & People
When you buy black color-enhanced mulch, you can be sure the colorant is certified as safe. The certification process ensures that the black pigments have been produced with rigid quality-control measures. Independent lab testing makes certain the colorants’ heavy-metal levels are well below EPA toxicity guidelines and that they contain no detectable volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making them non-toxic to the skin, eyes, lungs, and other internal systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much black mulch should I order for a medium-sized garden bed?
Here at Mulch Pros, we recommend 2–3 inches of black mulch for a medium-sized garden bed. Typically, one cubic yard of mulch covers about 100 square feet at this depth, ensuring proper weed suppression, moisture retention, and a clean, polished look for your landscape.
Can Mulch Pros Landscape Supply deliver black mulch directly to my home?
Yes, we provide convenient black mulch delivery straight to your home. At Mulch Pros, our bulk mulch service makes it easy to get the right amount of mulch without the hassle of hauling. We ensure fast, reliable delivery so your landscaping projects stay on schedule.
Is black mulch safe to use around vegetable gardens?
Our black mulch is made from natural hardwood and safe for most landscaping applications. At Mulch Pros, we recommend using it around ornamental plants, trees, and shrubs. For vegetable gardens, choose organic mulch options to ensure the best protection and soil health for edible plants.
What are the benefits of using black mulch over brown mulch?
Black mulch enhances curb appeal with a bold, modern contrast that makes plants and flowers stand out. At Mulch Pros, we find homeowners prefer it for a striking, polished look. Like brown mulch, it suppresses weeds, retains moisture, and insulates soil while offering a contemporary style.
