What Soils to Use & When
Compost:
Compost improves soil structure, texture, and aeration while increasing water retention. The organic matter in compost feeds microorganisms that keep the soil healthy and balanced. It’s ideal for vegetable gardens, mixing into soil when planting new plants, or topping up garden beds.
Potting & Basket Mix:
This is the same high-quality mix we use for houseplants and perennial production. It is perfect for indoor or outdoor use for houseplants, bulbs, flowers, herbs, and perennials. This versatile mix is great for containers, baskets, bowls, and raised garden beds.
