Pine Straw Uses
Pine Straw is excellent landscaping mulch for either residential or commercial properties. Longleaf is the preferred straw, as its higher resin content makes it retain its bright color longer than other varieties. Pine Straw does not harbor termites or artillery fungus, and it preserves soil moisture. The interlocking nature of the needles of longleaf straw makes it excellent for erosion control on hillsides. The straw is hand raked and baled for the best possible quality. It is less expensive per square foot than wood mulches, and no trees are destroyed in Pine Straw production. The one precaution we recommend is to avoid placing Pine Straw in contact with a building constructed of flammable siding to minimize the fire hazard. This precaution should also be taken when using shredded wood mulch or any flammable mulch material.
Longleaf Pine Straw - (14 Inch Pine Needle - a.k.a. - Long Needle Pine Straw, Pinus Palustris ) The thickest needle with the heaviest wax coating resulting in extreme durability. Very few companies actually carry this premium product due to the fact that it's scarce. This is the only product that we carry due to its superior qualities.
