Peat Free & Organic Compost A New environmental way of thinking is here & has put the peat free compost at the forefront of peoples minds. Sustainability is now a buzz word and rightly so! We are very aware of this and have been stocking these products for over 20 years. They have got better over the years and we are now confident the quality is up to the job. We have increased our range and have over 10 different lines.
Multipurpose compost is perfect for container-grown bedding, cuttings and potting on. In our garden centre you'll find environmentally-friendly peat-free and peat-reduced composts, and composts with added fertiliser and water-retaining gels - great for thirsty hanging baskets.
Specialist composts are tailor-made for the needs of plants from citrus to roses. You'll also find soil-based composts in our garden centre for permanent container planting, ericaceous composts for lime-hating plants and fine-grade seed composts for sowing.
Soil improvers like farmyard manure and composted bark beef up poorer soils to keep plants growing strongly. Mix with your soil when planting and use to mulch the surface to suppress weeds and hold in moisture.
Fertilisers include liquid feeds such as liquid seaweed and tomato feed to encourage flowering and fruiting. Add slow-release fertilisers such as Vitax Q4, organic fish,blood & bone, and bonemeal to planting holes and mix granular feeds into potting composts for feed-and-go convenience.
