Our Feedback
Only the second time I have used your company but when I wanted to increase my small orchard by just one tree I thought of you immediately. I was not disappointed. Immediate response to my question followed by very fast delivery of a healthy tree. I will certainly recommend you to my neighbours when they want something just that little bit better for the garden.

Supplied as one litre of freshly mixed compost.
This Product is Available Now.We mix our compost as it is required here at the nursery, which ensures it is never more than a week old and so is never 'stale' - unlike composts that are purchased in bulk by garden centres at the beginning of the year and then sit outside in the rain and sun (as soon as the compost is mixed the nutrients added come into contact with moisture and so start to release - and after a few months can either make the compost very rich or leach away to nothing so fresh compost is of great importance).
All our composts are blended from peat (a waste product of the peat fired power stations) and vermiculite - mixed in an Adelphi paddle mixer thus ensuring that the structure of the ingredients are not destroyed, which results in a compost that is both moisture retentive but also free draining with good aeration. Should the compost be accidentally over-watered it will soon drain to reasonable moisture levels; similarly if it is allowed to dry out it will be found to be easy to 'wet up'.
With regard to nutrients, all our compost contain a combination of lime (for pH correction), organic base fertilisers and organic slow release fertiliser. We do not incorporate any compost insecticides or similar.
