Have you kickstarted your spring gardening project yet? Well if not you are definitely one step behind the rest of the UK! With the spring weather being off to a magnificent start it is no surprise that we have all pushed the television remote to one side to go outside to catch some rays. What better way to give your garden a spruce up than with growing some new plants. Adding an extra layer of vibrancy to any garden that will simply leave the neighbour in awe. 

 

Topsoil is the number one solution for growing beautiful plants and improving the overall appearance of your garden. Are you struggling to find some inspiration on how to use topsoil within your own garden? No need to worry, we have put together some of the most popular uses of topsoil which will take your landscaping game to the next level. 

 

Surround Your Garden In Lucious Greenery 

 

The perimeter of your garden is a space which is sometimes left unnoticed when planning to improve your garden. It can be easy to just put up a lovely garden fence and then thinking that’s it. Surrounding your garden with stunning greenery fed from the nutrients offered by quality topsoil you will really be making the most out of this space giving your garden the professional finish that it deserves. 

 

Reignite The Growth of Healthy Grass 

 

The base of every well looked after the garden is a freshly cut lawn of bright green grass. This takes us on to our second most popular use for topsoil, promoting the growth of grass. Sometimes the soil that you keep placing grass seed on doesn’t hold the nutrients it needs to help support the growth of grass. Pair a fresh bag of topsoil and some new grass seeds and water frequently, within no time your garden will look as green as the Amazon rainforest. 

 

Make The Most Out of Your Old Plant Pots 

 

Once summer has finished and the cold weather takes the tole on our garden one of the first areas that will be affected will be the plants living in plant pots. When spring finally comes along we come out to find the dead plants and a derelict garden. By replacing the soil within these plant pots with nutrient-rich topsoil you will be opening up the possibilities to grow your favourite plants whilst eliminating the need for throwing old plant pots away. 

 

Plant A Tree For The Future of Your Garden  

 

Planning for the summer ahead is one thing but have you ever thought about planning for the long term future of your garden. Planting a tree in a fresh bed of topsoil will help to increase the chances of this tree growing tall and strong, creating that rich garden look that you have always dreamt about. Additionally, a tree will attract a whole range of wildlife to your garden. 

 

Personalised Allotment Space 

 

Thousands of homeowners here in the UK spend great sums of money on allotments, allowing them to grow a range of fresh produce. Have you ever considered growing the same plants but within the comfort of your own back garden. Well, now you can, simply grab a bag of topsoil and create plant your favourite vegetables. Within a matter of months you will have a range of fresh ingredients meters away from the saucepan. This is definitely one of the most popular uses of topsoil as it turns your garden space into an allotment that will serve you and your family members for many years to come.
