I just don't like the way the pine straw looks for a mulch. It looks so rough and not at all nice looking for the home landscape. I am used to the more refined look of the hardwood mulch or mini pine bark nuggets look. Are there any redeemable qualities of the pine straw that far outweigh what I currently think about the virtues of hardwood mulch?
Last year I mixed some pine straw in my soil to try to amend a new flower bed and that was surely a mistake. I ended up dumping most of it in my compost pile, ... happy to get it out of my flowerbed. I've got a bad taste in my mouth now about pine straw. What do you guys think about it?
