Compost & Soils

All plants need water, nutrients, warmth and light to grow successfully. Adequate water and nutrients are taken into the plant through the roots so getting the soil conditions or compost right is imperative to successful gardening. We can offer advice on the best composts and mulches for your garden and the plants you choose.

• Potting Composts. Whether you grow your plants from seed or use ready grown plants getting the right compost at each stage is important. For short term pottings of a year or less use Multi purpose composts. For long term potting use the John Innes type composts.
• Soil improvers - such as horse manure, mushroom compost, recycled Eco-compost help sandy soils to retain moisture and nutrients and help clay soils to drain more effectively.
• Mulches - such as bark and gravel are put on to establish beds and borders to help reduce weeding by up to 95%
