Beds looking bare or washed out?

On the sloped, pine-shaded lots off Thomasville Road and out in Killearn Lakes, mulch tends to float and wash downhill in a hard summer rain, while pine straw knits together and stays where you put it. But pine straw does flatten and thin as it weathers, so by the end of a season the beds start looking bare and tired. We clear out the old straw, edge the beds clean, and lay fresh pine straw to a full, even depth for that natural North Florida finish.

Pine straw is the North Florida classic for a reason: the needles knit together so they stay put on slopes and in heavy rain instead of floating away, and they give beds a soft, natural look that suits our pine landscapes. It is quick and affordable to refresh each season. We clear out the old straw, edge the beds, and hand-spread fresh pine straw to a full, even depth.

Good questions

Pine Straw Installation questions, answered

Will pine straw wash away on a slope?

That is where pine straw beats loose mulch. The needles knit together into a mat that stays put on slopes and in heavy North Florida rain instead of floating off. It is one reason pine straw is the regional classic for sloped and pine-shaded beds.

How often does pine straw need refreshing?

Pine straw flattens and thins faster than mulch, so most yards want a refresh once or twice a year to keep that full, natural look. It is quick and affordable to top off, and we clear the old straw and edge the beds before we spread fresh.
