Decorative mini bark
These decorative mini bark chips are screened to 8-20mm, just right for topping off pots, containers and small beds and borders. The rich brown colour and fine texture creates a lovely neat backdrop to show plants off to their full potential.
You won’t need to water or weed as much with them in place, so they’re great for low-maintenance gardens. Applied around perennials they’ll also add a layer of insulation to protect tender roots in the chilly season. Produced from certified sustainable conifer plantations grown for the timber industry.
How to use:
Beds and borders:
Prepare the area by removing all weeds and debris. Spread a layer of bark 2.5cm to 5cm deep evenly over the bed or border.
For best results lay a perforated fabric membrane under the bark. Cut an x-shaped hole in the membrane and place shrubs and plants into the planting hole under the membrane. Spread the bark chips back under the plant canopy to hide the membrane.
Remove any annual weeds as they appear. Maintain a good mulch layer and replenish with fresh bark annually.
Pots and containers:
Leave a 5-7cm space at the top of each container, and spread a 3-5cm layer of mini bark over the top of the compost or soil. This will provide thermal insulation so your pots are less likely to dry out.
Remove annual weeds as they appear. Check the compost underneath is fresh at least once a year and top up the bark.
