Premium Garden Soil

Our Premium Garden Soil is composed of sand, silt, clay, and organic matter. It is blended to Australian Standard AS 4419 and is designed to provide excellent water retention while maintaining good drainage and aeration for healthy root development.

With its neutral pH and low phosphorus levels, Premium Garden Soil can be used with a wide range of plants, including vegetables, flowers, exotic plants, and sensitive Australian natives.

Premium Garden Soil features a loamy soil base that is screened to remove contaminants and unwanted material before being blended with organic matter such as manure. The soil is then allowed to mature before use, helping improve nutrient availability and overall soil health.

Topsoil, on the other hand, is the natural upper layer of soil removed from a site. While it may also be screened for consistency, it generally does not contain added organic matter. As a result, it can be more susceptible to compaction, clumping, and poor drainage.

To calculate how much Premium Garden Soil you need for your project, measure the length and width of the area where the soil will be placed.

Next, determine the desired depth of soil. If you are building new garden beds over concrete or existing soil, we generally recommend a depth of approximately 30 cm. If you are simply topping up existing garden beds or planters, the required depth will vary depending on the plant type.

Once you have your length, width, and depth measurements, you can use our cubic metre calculator above or calculate the volume manually using the following formula: Volume = Length x Width x Height

Yes, it can. This mix is made from organic-based materials, making it an excellent choice for growing vegetables, herbs, and other edible plants.
