Compost

The Plant Company's Compost can be spread across the soil surface or mixed with soil during planting to provide organic matter and improve poor soils. It will increase soil health and has the added advantage of retaining moisture which is of great benefit to plants grown on sandy, pumice, and other light soil types. This is a great accessory for achieving better plants and can be used liberally. Please note that compost should not be used to pot up plants that will be grown in a container. The indoor plant growing media is advised instead.

Best uses for Compost in NZ

Compost is best used in NZ gardens to improve soil structure, increase organic matter, and support healthy plant growth. Mix it into garden beds before planting, use it around established trees and shrubs, or blend it into vegetable gardens to improve fertility and moisture retention. Compost is also useful for conditioning poor or tired soils, supporting soil biology, and preparing new planting areas for stronger root development.
