i wish that it were a dark brown earthy color, but otherwise it is great.

We live on the edge of the cow pasture and have huge oaks in our back yard. The cows come down in the evening and they love eating the moss that has blown down on the ground. I'll watch them reach under the fence and clean it out of my shrub beds.
