Soil – The Secret to a Thriving Garden

Soil for Thriving Plants

At Gauld Nurseries, we believe that healthy soil is the foundation of every successful garden. It's not just something you plant into—it's a vital ecosystem that supports root development, balances water flow, and delivers the nutrients your plants need to flourish.

Soil isn’t “one size fits all.” Different plants and projects require different blends, and choosing the right type can mean the difference between struggling growth and a lush, thriving landscape.

From flower beds and vegetable gardens to planters and lawns, each growing space has its own unique needs. That’s where we come in.

With years of local experience and a deep understanding of plant health, our team is here to help you select the perfect soil for your garden goals. Whether you’re starting from scratch or refreshing existing beds, we’ll set you up for success, right from the roots.

Topsoil:

Ideal for: Garden beds, lawns, and landscape grading

Our topsoil is rich in organic matter, screened for consistency, and offers the perfect blend of drainage and moisture retention. Use it to level your lawn, build new garden beds, or mix with compost for even more plant-boosting power.

Potting Mix:

Ideal for: Containers, planters, and hanging baskets

Our premium potting mix is specially formulated for potted plants. It’s lightweight, well-draining, and designed to retain just enough moisture to keep roots healthy without causing rot.

Compost:

Ideal for: Soil enrichment, vegetable gardens, and flower beds

Our compost is made from decomposed organic matter and adds life back into tired soils. It improves fertility, structure, and moisture-holding capacity, making it a natural choice for gardeners who want strong, vibrant plants.

Sand:

Ideal for: Loosening up heavy, compacted clay soil

Sand improves drainage and aeration by breaking up dense soil, making it easier for plant roots to grow and breathe. It’s especially helpful in garden beds or lawns where water tends to pool or run off.

Peat Moss:

Ideal for: Adding structure and moisture retention to sandy soil

Peat moss is lightweight, highly absorbent, and rich in organic material. It helps sandy soil hold onto water and nutrients longer, creating a more stable environment for plants..
