Randy, Thanks for the info. The cypress mulch is readily available and very cheap in these parts so I think I will give it a shot this year. I already have some mulching a the lirope I put out this year.

A top layer of Bark Mulch will keep the weeds down and make the plants look like they are in a Pro garden.
Worth a thought
