Notes: Available in 2 cubic foot bags. Cocoa shells are a superb mulch for planting beds, tree and shrub borders, and asparagus beds. Provides an attractive contrast for evergreens. Plus it adds a pleasant chocolate scent to your gardens! Like other mulches, cocoa mulch helps with weed control and moisture retention. To apply, use a rake to spread in a layer 2" thick and lightly stamp down. Soak thoroughly with a fine spray of water to activate the natural gumming that holds it in place. 2 cubic foot bag covers approximately 12 square feet to a depth of 2 inches.
