Red Stone vs Mulch
How much red stone can you use around a garden area, Crepe Myrtle tree and Rose of Sharon??
I think my husband has too much?

A stone mulch of one to two inches will help keep down weeds and conserve moisture. You may be able to use three inches of mulch if your soil drains well and the plants are mature. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
