It's the black plastic bag material that people used to cover their soil and poke holes through for their crops.

I never thought it was called plastic mulch though.

It serves the same purpose as actual mulch, which is blocking out weeds

Yes, but mulch has the meaning of ground up wood, so I think most people would think it was ground up plastics.
