Conditioning & revitalizing soil
Organic & Natural Planting Soil for Roses & Flowers is the ideal soil conditioner to improve and revitalize the soil around your roses and flowers. It is naturally lightweight and contains just the right ingredients to get your beautiful flowers off to a good start.

New & existing garden beds
Work in 2” to 3” of Organic & Natural Planting Soil for Roses & Flowers into the top 4” to 6“ of existing soil before planting. To maintain healthy permanent beds, apply a 2” to 3” layer of our Organic & Natural Planting Soil every year around your existing roses and flowers. This is best done in the spring before new foliage emerges and in the middle of the growing-season to refresh beds.

Planting holes
When planting flowering annuals and perrenials, dig a hole twice as deep and twice as wide as the root ball. Set the root ball down in the hole and keep the stem the same height as it was in the pot. Back fill with equal parts of Organic & Natural Planting Soil for Roses & Flowers and the surrounding soil, tamping lightly around the plant. Be careful not to pack the soil down around the plant, as this eliminates valuable airspace for the roots. Instead, water the plant to settle the soil, adding more soil if needed. Water thoroughly and regularly until the plant has established itself. Feed plants with an organic plant food as needed.

Composted manure, sphagnum peat moss, and aged bark.
