EcoBark® Topper
An attractive, dark-coloured mixed-conifer bark designed for pot mulching where it offers excellent resistance to disturbance and natural suppression of moss, liverwort and weed growth. FSC Certified® (FSC®) and Soil Association approved
Product Description
- Coarse enough to present a dry surface and allow free passage of irrigation
- Free-flowing, easily covering the entire surface of the pot with no gaps
- Evenly graded so ready to knit into a resilient, wind-resistant surface
- Resistant to shrinkage on drying so no gaps appear
- Very easy to apply either by hand or by machine, with minimal requirement for protective clothing and no formal training required
- Non-damaging to stock – non-phytotoxic and no restriction on protected crops
- Competitively priced against herbicide use and hand weeding
- Long lasting enough to maintain an attractive appearance until the time of despatch – a single application is all that is required
