The added loam contains a high humus content that helps to retain nutrients and moisture, this will also improve soil fertility and increase organic matter. Our topsoil has been sieved to remove debris with a screen size of 0-12mm meaning that only the best quality of ingredients are being added to the soil and to prevent any weed seeds from growing. The Topsoil helps plants to establish solid roots and they will in turn experience better drainage and less soil erosion."
