Sweet Peet® does more than cover ground. Its dark texture insulates roots against hot summers, locks in moisture, and — unlike synthetic or dyed mulches — actively improves the soil beneath it. No need to remove it at season's end. It breaks down to enrich the soil, improve tilth, encourage beneficial earthworms, and replenish microbes.
Spread a depth of 3–4" around shrubs, garden beds. perennials and trees to prevent compaction, retain moisture, suppress weeds and slowly release nutrients to the root system for healthier, more vigorous plants, while adding protection, beauty, nourishment and growth. This layer is typically enough to suppress weed growth.

A thin top-dress feeds the soil biology beneath your lawn, helping grass grow deeper roots and bounce back faster from Texas heat and daily wear.
