What’s the minimum order for turf?
We need at least 50 square metres for turf orders. Make sure to organise this ahead of time, approximately 1 week.
We don't cut turf to size. It will come in slabs/rolls.
Please note: Some varieties are seasonal and not available all year round.
What’s the best mulch for my garden?
It depends on your needs! Mulches are usually either decorative or feed your garden as they break down. Come and see our huge range of mulch to help make your choice.
Do you stock firewood all year round?
Yes! We sell 100% Ironbark Firewood. We always have this in stock; however, be sure to order early, as the weather gets colder!
How do I work out how many cubic meters I need?
If you measure the length and width and multiply by the depth, you will be able to work out the cubic metres required. Eg. 10m x 2m x .05 (50mm depth) = 1 cubic metre.
For example, A garden bed 10m long, 2 m wide and 15 cm deep requires 3.0 c u m of soil (10 x 2 x .15)
How deep do I need to lay stones/ pebbles?
A: The recommended depth is 50mm for best coverage.
What is the best soil for Veggies?
We would definitely recommend our own soil blend, “Regy’s Magic Mix”, for your vegetable garden.
The soil is loaded with mushroom compost, cow manure and our premium garden soil blend. We love hearing our gardener’s stories of success about this soil in particular.
Do you sell bulk potting mix?
We sell a podium mix, which is a soil suitable for large pots and raised garden beds. This is a soil that is high in organic matter, well-drained and contains coal ash. It is also very suitable for natives.
