I am a gardener so I don't use rubber mulch, but many of my neighbors have it and it works great for them. The soil in Florida is very poor, so I use a fine pine bark mulch which breaks down throughout the year adding nutrients to the soil. I also use oak leaves (when I can get them) and anything else that will break down naturally into the soil. My garden is pretty well established, through trial and error I have found out what works for me, so it is pretty much self sustaining now. I do, however, have several large pots and I change out the plants in them to whatever I see and like.
