Summer is finally here, and it’s the perfect time to refresh your garden and outdoor spaces! At Dandy’s, we’re here to help you make the most of your June landscaping with these top essentials and tips to keep your garden thriving and beautiful.
1️⃣ Topsoil for Healthy Growth
Our Pick: Jim Dandy's Garden Ready Multi Purpose Topsoil
Good soil is the foundation for any lush summer garden. Our premium screened and peat free Multi Purpose Topsoil is perfect for planting beds, laying under lawn turf, and revitalising tired veg plots. It’s rich in nutrients and easy to work with, giving your plants a strong start for the sunny season.
Tip: For best results, apply a 2–3 cm layer of topsoil and rake or dig in evenly before planting. This ensures your plants and veggies get the nutrients they need to thrive!
2️⃣ Decorative Aggregates for Stunning Pathways
Our Pick: Hoggin Self-Binding Gravel. As seen on TV, Instagram and TikTok!
Nothing elevates a garden like well-laid decorative aggregates!
Gravel not only looks stunning on pathways, driveways, around borders and seating areas, but also helps with drainage, keeping your garden healthy and weed-free.
Tip: For normal decorative gravel lay down a weed control membrane first, then spread a 4–5 cm layer of gravel for a professional finish. Always consult a professional when laying Hoggin Self-Binding to get the best results, or follow our how to guide.
3️⃣ Mulch for Moisture and Weed Control
Our Pick: Premium Border Bark Mulch
Keep your garden beds tidy and protected with our quality Premium Border Bark Mulch. They’re perfect for retaining moisture during those hot June days and help suppress pesky weeds.
Tip: Spread a 3 to 5 cm layer around your plants to lock in moisture and protect your soil.
4️⃣ Compost for a Nutrient Boost
Our Pick: Dandy’s Summermix Peat Free Compost
June is the perfect month to give your garden a nutrient boost. Our Summermix Organic Compost is packed with organic matter that encourages healthy growth for flowers, vegetables, and shrubs, whilst helping to retain moisture through the hotter summer months.
Tip: Mix compost into your beds and pots to improve soil structure and give your plants a head start for summer.
5️⃣ Lawn Feed for a Lush Green Lawn
Our Pick: Dandy’s Lawn Care, Feed & Weed
A vibrant lawn is the heart of any summer garden. Our range of Lawn care products are formulated to promote lush growth and keeps those weeds at bay, so your lawn stays green and healthy all season long.
