re: Let’s talk rubber mulch

The color is much more vivid imo. I’ve used regular mulch forever. Seems like after it gets rained on the first time, it just doesn’t look as good. Now I usually use black, but going with brown this time. Maybe that will help with color retention.

I buy mine by the truck bed from a small local company. I find it much more vibrant and longer lasting. Much more finely ground.
The bag shite doesn't last. Got a truckload of sacks from Lowe's 3 years ago and they were full of termites. The bags I'm told often sit in a warehouse for quite a long time before they ever get shipped out. You can lose color there and they are half rotten when you get them. Ateast the ones from Lowe's have been.

Not worth it imo
I do exactly like thejudge says above. Buy very finely shredded mulch by the truckload locally. What I buy is technically not even mulch as it is a blend of premium shredded hardwood and composted materials. It looks very fine like dirt. I don’t worry nearly as much about color retention because it’s brown and the colors I’m interested in are the flowers I’ve planted not the dirt. It composts into the bed over time and improves plant health
