What's funny is that's leftovers from the absolute mess that the ground clearing guy we hired ripped out of the area. He ran EVERYTHING through a woodchiper and made a massive amount of mulch.

What did you do with the rest of them?

They are around a rhododendron, maple tree, and keeping a walk area on one side of the house clear.

Quick guesstimate is that he made enough mulch to cover about 400 square feet about 4 to 6 inches deep.
