Longleaf Pine Straw in Lexington, SC
Fresh bales and rolls to give your beds a clean, finished look.
Nothing tidies up a yard faster than fresh pine straw. We carry longleaf — the long, springy needles that knit together, stay put on slopes, and hold their color — in bales and rolls. Pick your size below.
What We Carry
Bales are the easy grab-and-go for beds and borders; rolls cover a stretch fast and work well on a slope — same longleaf, different form.
How many bales? A quick walk-through
One longleaf bale spread about 3 inches deep — the depth that looks full and holds down weeds — covers roughly 50 to 70 square feet. Use 60 as your middle number and you’ll be close.
A front bed 4 ft × 25 ft (100 sq ft) plus two driveway beds totaling 200 sq ft = 300 sq ft. 300 ÷ 60 = 5, so grab 5 bales (round up to 6 for a fuller look). Rolls are handy for covering a stretch quickly or working a slope.

Pine Straw FAQ
One longleaf bale covers about 50–70 sq ft at 3 inches deep. Divide your bed square footage by ~60 and round up.
Most homeowners refresh once or twice a year; longleaf holds together, so you usually add a fresh layer rather than replace it.
Fluff the flakes loose, layer about 3 inches deep, keep it a couple inches off stems and trunks, and edge it clean along the bed line.
We carry longleaf pine straw in bales and rolls — we don't sell wheat straw. Longleaf knits together, holds its color, and looks clean in landscape beds.
