Quick answer

Hardwood Chip is a durable mulch made from Australian hardwood, approximately 1–1.2 inches (25–30mm) per chip. It stays in place on sloped gardens and stands up to rain that could wash a bed out. Unlike finer mulches it keeps its structure, texture and colour for extended periods, retains water, and blocks sunlight from weed seeds. Spread about 50–75mm deep.

About the product

About this mulch

Approximately 1–1.2 inches in size per wood chip, the hardwood chip mulch is great for staying in place when used in sloped gardens. It is tougher for weather where rain may otherwise wash the garden bed out. It is made from Australian Hardwood and unlike some finer mulches that decompose quickly, it maintains its structure, texture, and colour for extended periods.

When applied as a mulch layer, hardwood chip effectively blocks sunlight from reaching weed seeds, preventing them from germinating and thriving, great for those who like to avoid using weed killer or herbicides.

Common questions about Hardwood Chip

Is hardwood chip good for sloped gardens?

Yes. The 25–30mm chips lock together and stay in place where rain might otherwise wash a bed out.

How long does hardwood chip last?

Longer than finer mulches. It keeps its structure, texture and colour for extended periods.

How much hardwood chip do I need?

Spread mulch 50–75mm deep. One cubic metre covers about 13–20 m² at that depth. Multiply length × width × depth in metres, or use our volume calculator.
