Default Re: Shredded tires for landscaping??

We used this type of mulch at our home in Birmingham. First of all it is rather expensive, about $23.00 for a bag. We had it in our shrub beds for 2 years and it looked as good after 2 years as the day we put it down. We did need to buy a couple of bags to replenish some bare areas. The only problem we had was when we had to edge out the shrub beds this stuff does not take well to an edger. It goes all over the place. Lawnmowers also kick around even more when it gets kicked into the grass. It is not easy to sweep up. The up side, was not having to buy mulch every 6 months. Would I buy it again Probably Not. Looking to do stone, like lava rock.
