Garden Essentials
Soil, Fertilizers & Amendments
Indoor
Good soil is the essence of a healthy indoor plant. Soil that is full of nutrients and drains properly gives plants the best possible growing medium.
We stock a wide selection of potting mix for growing plants: tropical mix; cactus & succulent soil; African Violet soil; medium for seeds and cuttings; orchid media.
Outdoor
We have an excellent selection of soils for your garden, flower beds and landscaping. Our qualified experts will help you choose the right soil for your needs as all soils are not created equal. Balancing Nitrogen, Phosphorus and potassium levels (illustrated on our soil bags) will aid in the overall health of your plants.

Mulches & Straw
Important to use as ground cover, but also effective for weed control and moisture retention. Barley straw is organic and breaks down quickly. Mulches, like Ecco Mulch, re-cycles untreated wood and the color is natural occurring vegetable or mineral based, safe for people an pets. Coconut coir is a wonderful sustainable alternative to peat moss, although we do carry peat moss. It is 100% natural, has superior water holding capabilities, and is a renewable resource. Red Cedar mulch is one of our favorites that add color.
Rocks & Sand
Our rock and sand is bagged and sterilized to prevent unwanted weeds and pests. Therefore, our sand is perfect to use in sand boxes! Our yard has a small selection of decorative landscape rock.
Manure
Naturally composted and weed free, manure adds organic matter to soil which benefits the overall health of garden plants, lawns, trees and shrubs. Our manure is bagged and sterilized.
