Foothills Premium Mulch Coverage Guide
One cubic yard of mulch provides approximately the following coverage at different depths:
| Mulch Depth | Coverage Per Bag |

| 2 inches | Approx. 162 sq. ft. |

Benefits of Foothills Premium Mulch
Foothills Premium Mulch creates a natural-looking finish around garden plants, trees and shrubs. Its natural colour works well in traditional garden beds, informal landscapes and planting areas where a less uniform, non-coloured appearance is preferred.
When applied correctly, mulch helps reduce moisture loss from the soil, moderate soil temperature changes and suppress some weed growth by limiting sunlight at the soil surface.
As with other landscaping mulches, the material may settle and change appearance with weather and time. Periodic topping up can help maintain the desired coverage and finished look.
How to Apply Foothills Premium Mulch
Before spreading mulch, remove weeds and debris, prepare the planting area and establish the desired bed edges. Spread the mulch evenly across the surface at the appropriate depth for your landscaping project.
Approximately 2–3 inches is a common finished mulch depth for established garden beds. Keep mulch away from tree trunks, shrub stems and building siding to reduce the risk of excess moisture collecting against them.
When refreshing existing mulch, check the current depth before adding more material. This helps maintain suitable coverage without unnecessarily building up thick layers.
Foothills Premium Mulch vs. Black Mulch
Foothills Premium Mulch is a natural-colour decorative mulch with no added colour, making it a good option for landscapes where a natural finish is preferred.
Black mulch provides a darker, more uniform decorative appearance that creates stronger contrast with green lawns, flowers and shrubs. Both products can be used for suitable garden beds and planted landscapes.
The best choice depends on your preferred colour, overall landscape design and maintenance expectations.
