and ecological services to create their own sustainable "Florida Friendly" landscapes. Our goal is to make
it as easy as possible for you to create native Florida habitats and rewarding gardens that help sustain our environment.

FloriMulch
FloriMulch
is a highly insect-resistant mulch made from the exotic invasive Melalueca tree. These trees invade our wetlands and
displace native plants and wildlife, so turning them into useful mulch is a great use for them! FloriMulch is now available
by the bag at The Green Marketplace (until we sell out). Price is $3.49 per bag, or if you buy 25 bags or more, the discounted
price is $3.29 per bag (plus tax).
The mulch comes in 1.5 cubic
foot bags. To calculate how much you need, use this formula:
width
(feet) x length (feet) x .25 (for a 3" deep layer) = ______ cubic feet. Divide the answer by 1.5 (amount
in each bag) and that will tell you approximately how many bags you need.
