Why use peat-free compost in your garden?
Peat-free compost is a type of growing medium used for gardening that does not contain peat moss.Using peat-free compost is a more sustainable choice for gardeners who are looking to reduce their environmental impact. Peat-free compost is made from a variety of materials such as coir (coconut fiber), composted bark, wood chips, green waste, and other organic matter. These materials provide a similar level of water retention and nutrient content as peat moss, making them an effective alternative. Peat-free compost is a great contributor to the growth of fruit- and vegetable plants, seeds and cuttings.

Ericaceous compost for acid-loving plants
Ericaceous compost is a type of growing medium designed specifically for plants that prefer acidic soil, such as rhododendrons, azaleas, heathers, and blueberries. One of Horticentre's favourites is the Miracle-Gro Ericaceous Compost, specifically made for these types of plants! Eraceous compost is made from a combination of materials such as sphagnum moss peat, pine bark, and other acidic materials. It typically has a lower pH level than regular compost, making it suitable for acid-loving plants. The acidic nature of ericaceous compost helps to create a soil environment that allows these plants to take up nutrients more efficiently, leading to healthier growth and better flowering or fruiting.
Using ericaceous compost is important for acid-loving plants because regular compost or soil that is too alkaline can cause nutrient deficiencies and poor growth. Ericaceous compost helps to provide the right soil conditions for these plants, ensuring they receive the nutrients they need to thrive.
