When is it time to add more mulch or add colorant?

The month of May is the month of mulch. So, we are sharing a series of articles, videos and photos of landscape transformations focusing on mulch. These articles will provide general information about mulch, mulch colorants and mulch-crete, which holds mulch in place and prevents mulch from eroding from areas such as slopes and hills.
