Tangy,
The main reason I started using cypress is because other wood mulches tend to attract termites and I have beds fairly close to the house... The other reason I use it is because it tends to stay put during heavy rains and I didn't want mulch in my pool.. I know it doesn't break down very fast which is good and bad, but I use other means to provide nutrients to my plants... I leave my mulch on year round to suppress weeds as well as retain moisture... I have used cypress mulch for 3 years now and have no ill effects from it... That is just my .02 worth on the subject...
BTW, I misspelled the ee you wanted identified... I was in a hurry and hit a instead of s.... 'Illustrius' Anyone else have a definite id???
