Rubber Mulch for Landscaping

[Sean Ploskina]

I am considering putting down rubber much as part of a landscaping project at several properties.  Has anyone had experience using this at rentals?  How long will it last assuming it doesn't float or fly away?

Worth the cost vs regular mulch?

Thanks BPers

generally it comes with a five to ten year color guarantee. It seems to be worth it if you  if you don't have a high-traffic area or landscaping to do every year .  If you're a person who does it yourself then the savings my only be justified in the costing over time obviously you take longer to to recoup the cost of regular mulch  especially if you are getting it in bulk .  I prefer to do all rocks because they'll never go bad
