The importanceof a healthy soil...

There are few gardeners who can say that they have the ideal or perfect soil. For most of us it is too stony, sandy, clay based, acidic or alkaline. Once you understand what a healthy soil consists of, you realise what is needed to turn your soil into a plant-friendly medium. Soil is composed of rock particles, chemical compounds, animal and vegetable matter as well as living organisms feeding and breaking down this organic matter. It is these living organisms constantly at work, breaking down the various materials in the soil, which make macro and micro-nutrients available to the plant root systems. Worms, small animals, insects and microbes will only thrive once soil elements are balanced.

Creating and establishing a well-planned garden takes a long time and careful input. The foundation of a beautiful garden would definitely be your garden soil. Make sure it is in a good condition before spending money on plants and make sure you maintain it while your plants are establishing.

A well balanced healthy soil will make all the difference to how your garden plants grow and flourish.

How to identify your soil type.

You don’t need to be an expert to identify your soil type as either clay, sand or loam. The “get your hands dirty test” will soon reveal which of the three types you have.

Take a handful of soil from your garden and squeeze it. 1. If a tight ball forms and the particles are closely

packed, making it hard for water to permeate, then you have a clay soil. Clay soils have little space for air particles and hold too much water. Avoid over watering this type of soil. A large amount of compost will need to be added to create a better growing medium.

2. If the soil crumbles in your hand and is not waterlogged then you have a sandy soil. This type of soil often needs more fertilizing because there is no water retention. To combat this problem compost extensively until the loam structure has been achieved.

3. If you squeeze the soil and it is not clay or sand you have the ideal soil: loam. There are variations of loam but in general by adding compost you will improve the structure and increase the number of living organisms in the soil.

Culterra has developed a variety of mediums which can be used to improve the structure of your soil: Mushroom Compost, Landscapers Mix and Compost are all high in organic-material, perfect for adding to sandy or clay soils to improve plant growth.

Compost Topsoil Mushroom Compost Mulch

Coco peat, also known as coir pith, coir fibre pith, coir dust or simply coir, is made from coconut husks, which are by-products of other industries that use coconuts. Coco peat is used as a soil additive.

Its high air filled porosity and water holding capacity makes it an ideal growing medium for plants. It is 100% organic and eco-friendly, free from soil borne pathogens and weeds.

Now that you know what the physical structure of your soil is, it is important to know its pH. An ideal pH would be 5.8 although plants and soil life forms have a preference for either alkaline or acidic conditions. Having the incorrect soil pH can increase the risk of diseases and compromise the availability of nutrients in the soil. Both macro and micro-nutrients available to plants are affected by the soil pH.

Is your soil acidic or alkaline?

CompostCulterra Compost is made from organic materials. It is free from weeds and harmful soil pathogens. Our compost adds beneficial soil microbes as well as macro and micro-nutrients to your soil.

Landscapers MixLandscapers Mix is a fine textured blend of sandy loam and compost. Ideal for levelling existing soil surfaces such as before planting grass.

Mushroom CompostIt is high in organic material, created by using the by-products once the mushroom crop has been harvested. This is perfect for adding to sandy or clay soils to improve plant growth.

Sphagnum peat moss is a natural, organic soil conditioner that regulates moisture and air around plant roots for ideal growing conditions.

Acidic Soil - If the pH of your soil is less than 5.6, it may be too acidic for most garden plants. The most common way to raise the pH is to add dolomitic lime.

Alkaline Soil - If your soil pH is higher than 6.4 you will need to acidify your soil. This may be done by adding ammonium sulphate or acid compost.

or bulk. It may be used for creating a berm or raising a bed.

MulchCulterra Mulch is manufactured from pine bark and forms a protective covering over the soil, reducing evaporation and increasing aeration. It will help prevent weed seeds from germinating and once broken down will improve your garden soil’s water holding capacity and air filled porosity. When soil water evaporates, the salt content increases which inhibits plant growth. Mulching helps reduce salt stress on plants.

Sphagnum peat has the following benefits:Save water: peat retains up to 20 times its weight in water and releases water slowly as plants need it.Aerate heavy clay soils: peat moss allows for proper root growth by loosening and aerating soils.Bind sandy soils: by adding body to sandy soils peat helps it retain moisture and nutrients.Reduces leaching: peat moss reduces leaching of nutrients. This will save on fertilizer.

Have you noticed how Hydrangeas change colour (except for white flowering plants) based on the pH level of your soil. The more alkaline the soil, the pinker the flowers. To make pink Hydrangeas turn blue increase the acidity of your soil.

Acid loving plants

African Violets

Hydrangeas

This old fashioned indoor plant prefers bright but filtered sunlight and a moist but not wet soil, avoid moisture on the leaves.

Always water before the soil has dried out completely. Culterra African Violet Mix is the perfect well-drained growing mix for re-potting your violets into.

They like to be continually fertilized so try our water-soluble Multisol K. This fertilizer is high in potassium which will stimulate flower growth. A full range of micro-nutrients has been added to the fertilizer.

This delicate ornamental plant will make a spectacular display in spring and early summer in your garden. With care and attention you will have constant growth and flowering. Plant in a partially shaded position, protected from midday sun and drying winds. Azaleas prefer an acidic soil which can be achieved by adding Culterra Acid Compost and Ammonium Sulphate. Azaleas are not deep rooted so the hole should not be more than 450mm deep and wide. Mulch around the plant to reduce the soil temperature and evaporation.

Vita Flora 3:1:5 (26) SRNAcid Compost Fruit & Flower 6:1:5 (21)

Plant new plants in Spring in a position that is protected from strong winds and hot afternoon sun. Your plant will need a moist, rich soil. Water deeply once or twice a week.

In Spring, prune back old or damaged growth and old flower stems. Don’t cut new shoots as this is where the new blooms will be. In late Summer, after blooming, prune to just above the next outward facing bud. For larger flower clusters, thin plant down to half the number of stems.

Hydrangeas do especially well when fertilized in spring or early summer. Although some authorities recommend special fertilizer mixes to get maximum results, Hydrangeas do amazingly well with a more relaxed approach.

We recommend using a granular, slow-release fertilizer once or twice a year in the growing season like Culterra Vita Flora 3:1:5 (26) slow-release nitrogen.

If you prefer to go the organic way, use Culterra Acid Compost on the soil around the Hydrangea and feed with Culterra Organic 7:1:5 (19) with trace elements.

Hydrangea care

Once you have determined the pH of your soil you can now treat it accordingly. For alkaline soils use our Mulch, Acid Compost, Ammonium Sulphate or Canadian Peatmoss. Most plants like soils that are slightly acidic (pH = 5.8), by adding these products you will improve the physical and chemical properties for good plant growth.

Plants like Hydrangeas and Azaleas like an acidic soil. It is important to feed them correctly and not to plant acid intolerant plants close by. Rhododendrons, Camellias, Fuchsias and most indigenous shrubs and trees are acid loving plants.

Seedling Food

AzaleasAzaleas are slow, continuous feeders. Start feeding your Azaleas with an acidifying fertilizer, such as Culterra Ammonium Sulphate alternating with Culterra Fruit & Flower 6:1:5 (21) approximately 1 month after planting. Do not feed directly after planting since the fertilizer may burn the roots and prevent establishment of the plant. Read the instructions on the bag for the correct application rate.

What should I feed Azaleas?

PLANTS

Vermiculite is the name of a group of hydrated laminar minerals which look like mica. When added to soil it increases water and nutrient reten-tion and aerates the soil, producing healthier plants. It is sterile, lightweight and mixes easily with other mediums.

Perlite is a volcanic mineral which is used by growers and gardeners to promote drainage and aeration in heavy clay soils. It retains moisture for successful plant growth. It has a neutral pH and is a sterile, light-weight medium.

MultikelpMultikelp is a totally natural liquid fertilizer. Made from kelp fortified with micro-nutrients in a carbohydrate chelated form.

Prized for their ability to flower in shade, Clivias are an ideal plant for mass planting under trees or in shady areas.

Clivias

Orchids

When planting Clivia seeds out, use a pot or bag of about 150mm deep and place a layer of small stones in the bottom. Fill the container with Culterra Clivia Mix which is a well drained organic medium with added slow-release fertilizer. Firmly press down the mix and water well. Then make small holes, at least 20mm apart, to accommodate the little tap roots. Gently press each seed into the medium so that half the seed rests below the surface. Place the pot in a shaded position and keep moist by watering once or twice a week with a fine gentle spray.

Seedlings can be left in the pot for up to two years. At the beginning of the third year they can be transplanted into permanent pots or into the garden. Alternatively they can be moved into well-drained individual black planting bags or pots after one year. Use fresh Culterra Clivia Mix when planting into bags. Make sure that you enrich your garden soil with Culterra Compost before planting out into the garden.

During the growing season, feed weekly with a weak solution of water-soluble or liquid fertilizer.

Try our Culterra Multisol P 2:1:2 (43) with trace elements added at a quarter

of the dilution strength. For an organic foliar feed, try Culterra

Multikelp which is made from kelp products and fortified with micro-nutrients in a carbohydrate chelated form.

How do I plant out Clivia seeds?

How do I feed my orchids?

Clivias are extremely hardy and drought-resistant but do not thrive in direct sunlight or frost areas. The Clivia is indigenous to Southern Africa where they grow wild in forested, woodland areas.

When feeding your Clivias, use Culterra Vita Flora 5:1:5 (33) Slow-Release Nitrogen with added trace elements or Culterra Organics 7:1:5 (19) fertilizer.

The golden rule for orchid success is to recreate the plant’s natural environment as closely as possible. In nature, most orchids are epiphytes, meaning they grow on other objects, clinging to rough bark or even stone.

Vita Flora 5:1:5 (33) SRNClivia Mix

How do I repot my orchid?Remove it from the plastic pot and carefully remove as much of the moss from the roots as you can. Healthy roots should be white and firm, with a small green growing point. Cut away any shrivelled, rotten or blackened roots.

Bonsais require a well-drained medium that is loamy in its nature. This helps prevent the trees from toppling over when they are planted in their shallow pots. A good slow-release fertilizer needs to be added. Culterra Bonsai Mix has all the properties required to grow healthy, happy Bonsais.

Orchids have become increasingly fashionable over the past few years. Flowering orchids make a statement and in order to reward yourself with another beautiful bloom the next season, it is important to understand and care for them correctly.

Most store-bought orchids come packaged in cheap plastic pots with the roots packed in soaked moss. Obviously, this violates two of the main runs for successful growth. There is no airflow around the roots, and the roots are never given a chance to completely dry out. Thus, the plant cannot breathe and root rot is inevitable. Orchid roots are highly specialized organs designed to soak up water very quickly and breathe. They do not extract nutrients from soil. The first step with any store-bought orchid is to enjoy the bloom. Do not attempt to re-pot a flowering plant. After the bloom is done, go ahead and cut off the dead flower spike with sterile secateurs and repot the plant.

Orchids should be potted into specialized orchid pots in Culterra Orchid Mix. Orchid pots feature wide drainage slits so water will literally run through the pot. Orchid potting mixture is usually composed

of several chunky ingredients, including pine bark, peatmoss and charcoal.

Set the plant into the pot and fill in around it with Culterra Orchid Mix. The plant should be firmly situated, but it will not be completely anchored. Eventually, new roots will grow through the potting mixture and attach to the pot itself, thus anchoring your plant. Once the orchid is re-potted, find a good spot. An east facing window with a few hours of mild morning sun is perfect.

Growing beautiful roses begins with proper rose planting techniques and requires neither great rose gardening skills nor experience.

Most hedges are planted as a privacy screen, windbreak or for security. They can also be used to control erosion or add structure and style to a formal garden.

RosesRoses need plenty of water with at least two thorough soakings per week if there is no rainfall. Always surround your planted rose bush or standard with an earthen ring to retain added water. Place at least 75mm of Culterra Mulch around the bush to prevent evaporation of moisture from the soil after watering.

How much water should I give my rose bush?

How should I plant my rose bush or standard?Growing beautiful roses begins with proper rose planting techniques and requires neither great rose gardening skills nor experience. Roses prefer a fairly rich clay based soil that is well drained. They also benefit from generous amounts of compost or kraal manure mixed into the soil. Mix in a handful of Culterra Bone Meal or Culterra Superphosphate at the bottom of the hole and dig Culterra Compost into the hole before planting. When planting your rose bush, plant directly into our Rose Planting Mix which has added fertilizer.

Most plants used for hedges grow rapidly and are cut into particular shapes, like a box or globe shape. They need to be resilient to pruning and bush easily.

How should I plant a hedge?Much the same way as trees and other shrubs. Hedge plants will need a fertilizer that is high in nitrogen which will promote foliage growth, so during the growing season, feed with Culterra Vita Flora 3:2:1 Slow-Release Nitrogen or Culterra Vita Flora 5:1:5 (33) Slow-Release Nitrogen or Multisol N (water-soluble fertilizer). When planting out hedge plants do not forget to use Culterra Compost, Bone Meal or Superphosphate.

Who would say no to a fragrant window box kitchen herb garden with just a little maintenance and care? Creating a herb garden is extremely rewarding for a gar-dener and chef alike. With very little effort you can set up your indoor kitchen herb garden in pots or window box-es on your kitchen windowsill. This is ideal for gardeners living in townhouses that would like a variety of their favourite herbs freshly available. For those of you with a little more space, try our wooden planter boxes in close proximity to your kitchen door for easy access.

What should I fill my window boxes with when planting herbs?Culterra Herb Mix is a potting mix that is especially formulated for filling herb planting boxes and pots. Extra fertilizer has been added to the mix to ensure that the herb plants have sufficient nutrition for 3 months.

Try Culterra Vita Flora 5:1:5 (33) Slow-Release Nitrogen for feeding your herbs on a 3 monthly basis during the growing season. Alternatively, liquid feed with Culterra Multisol N or K.

What type of lawn should I plant?It is very important to plant the correct type of grass in order to ensure that your lawn will remain beautiful for years to come. We have listed some of the most common lawns planted in our area in order for you to make the right choice.

KikuyuKikuyu is the most common lawn in South Africa and requires full sun. Kikuyu lawn has a soft texture and needs to be watered regularly especially in the warmer summer months.

CynodonThis lawn is a soft, fine lawn and has a deep green colour. It requires regular watering and is a fast grower in the perfect conditions. Cynodon can be mowed very short. Cynodon prefers sunny areas but can grow to some extent in shady areas. Water regularly especially in the warmer months.

LM / BereaHas a reputation for the highest shade tolerance out of all the species. This grass must not be cut too short. It has a high disease and insect tolerance. As it is also a creeper it can be combined with a grass such as Kikuyu to fill in the shady areas. Water regularly, especially in the warmer months.

BuffaloBuffalo is a well-known grass type in South Africa. As it is indigenous and water wise it is usually one of the preferred lawns in warmer climate areas that are frost free and drier. It is traffic tolerant.

Lawn types

Soil preparationA healthy soil is needed for a healthy lawn. Before laying a new lawn it is important to work plenty of compost and 2:3:2 fertilizer into your garden soil. This will improve the structure of your soil and provide the necessary nutrition for healthy root development. If the soil is prepared correctly, the air, water and nutrients will be more readily available to your grass roots.

AerationAerate your soil in spring as this will improve the moisture and fertilizer infiltration into the soil and promote better root growth. For small areas you can spike your lawn with a garden fork or for larger gardens a coring machine can be used.

Topdressing Topdressing is the practice of applying a thin layer of growing medium to the surface of a lawn. The numerous benefits include better infiltration, control of disease and insect problems, a smooth surface, a better established lawn and fewer weeds.

MowingOnly a third of the total height of your grass should be cut off during mowing. Maintain your lawn mower to ensure you have sharp blades which will prevent tearing and injuring your grass. Having too much thatch is detrimental to your lawn as it harbours pathogens and prevents a smooth, even surface to your lawn. Thatch is a layer of roots, shoots and stems on the surface of the root zone below the green tops. A small layer (6-8mm) is good but as it becomes too thick it is necessary to scarify, usually done in spring. Your lawn mower blades will penetrate deeply into the thatch layer. Rapid recovery can be stimulated by topdressing with Culterra Lawn Dressing after scarifying.

Lawn 8:1:5 (25) This lawn fertilizer is ideally suited to all lawns. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium levels in grass clippings are in the same proportion as this fertilizer.

LAN/KAN Some people prefer to apply Limestone Ammonium Nitrate to their lawns. This fertilizer is a source of nitrogen, calcium and magnesium and produces wonderful green lawn.

Vita Flora 3:2:1 (28) SRNSome gardeners prefer to make use of a 3:2:1 fertilizer to fertilize their lawns. This product has the nitrogen component in slow-release form and therefore nitrogen is available for up to 5 months after application. Alternatively make use of Vita Flora 5:1:5 (33) SRN or Vita Flora 3:1:5 (26) SRN. Both these fertilizers have nitrogen in slow-release form.

The best way to manage lawn nutrition is to supply the turf with adequate levels of all nutrients except nitrogen.

The growth of the lawn is then managed with nitrogen. The N-P-K ratio of lawn clippings is approximately 8:1:5. So when a fertilizer is applied, the ratio of the fertilizer should approximately be that. Where possible, fertilizer should be applied after spiking so that it can penetrate the lawn soil. Remember that growing grass is not about getting maximum growth but rather providing a lawn surface that is acceptable to the users.

Sustainability is the new buzzword and a trend of organic and natural foods is sweeping the globe.

A sustainable future

High transportation and agricultural costs see food prices soaring to new heights. Why not plant your own fresh vegetables in your back garden or in pots if space is limited? There is no healthier way to go, not to mention the fresh air and doses of vitamin D you will receive by being in the sun. Teaching kids how to grow food is one of the most rewarding experiences. Use Culterra’s range of organic products that will help grow healthy vegetables and healthy children.

When preparing a vegetable garden it is essential that a generous dose of Culterra Compost or well-composted Culterra Kraal Manure is added to improve the soil texture, making it loose, fertile and capable of holding moisture.

Deep digging over the whole area of a vegetable patch is vital. By digging to depths of 800mm and adding compost and kraal manure you will be able to achieve soil texture that is optimum for growing good vegetables.

When starting your own compost heap, try our Culterra compost activator. It will speed up the decomposition process giving you nutrient rich soil in no time.

How should I germinate my vegetable seeds?Some seeds are best sown directly in the garden, while others really need to start indoors. Follow the instructions on your seed pack to ensure the sowing depth and time of sowing is correct.

Here are a few guidelines to follow:• Use seed trays as they provide proper drainage which will prevent the seeds from rotting.• Fill your tray with a loose, fine medium such as germination mix. A starter charge of fertilizer has already been added to get your germinating seedlings off to a good start.• After sowing the seeds gently firm down the surface.• Lightly water the seeds and cover the tray with glass, plastic wrap or plexi-glass. This will keep the seeds moist and warm during germination. • As soon as the seeds have germinated, remove the covering and check the seeds twice a day for moisture. • Allow the seeds to dry between watering.• Sufficient ventilation and air circulation is necessary to discourage diseases.• Seedlings require 12-16 hours of light a day. Intense light is necessary to prevent spindly or leggy seedlings. If you wish to plant out larger seedlings, transplant them into cavity trays filled with seedling mix.

VEGETABLES

For growing vegetables that produce fruit, such as tomatoes, peppers, and squash, avoid fertilizing with too much nitrogen. Nitrogen encourages leafy growth at the expense of flowering so use Culterra 2:3:4 (21). However, if you are growing lettuce, basil, or another vegetable whose leaves are your goal, nitrogen will fuel production. Try Culterra Seedling Food 7:1:5 (19) + TE. In either case, you’ll want to fertilize regularly and moderately.

Vegetables 2:3:4 (21)

After seeds have germinated and grow to the 4 leaf stage, you will have to start feeding them with a water-soluble fertilizer. This can be done effectively with Culterra Multisol N, P or K, a water-soluble fertilizer with added micro-nutrients or Culterra Multikelp manufactured from kelp products and fortified with nutrients in a carbohydrate chelated form.

Should I feed germinated seeds and seedlings?

Germination & seedlingsFor germinating your vegetable and annual seeds try Culterra’s Germination Mix which is especially blended for this purpose. A starter charge of fertilizer is added to get your germinated seeds off to a good start. For planting out seedlings into flower boxes, hanging baskets and seedling trays try Culterra Seedling Mix, which has added slow-release fertilizer.

How should I plant a fruit tree? Much the same way as a normal tree. Most citrus is shallow rooting, therefore when digging a hole to plant the tree, rather dig it wider than deep. A thick layer of mulch should be applied to discourage other growth around the tree and prevent excessive water evaporating. When feeding your fruit trees make sure that you feed with a fertilizer with the full spectrum of trace elements for best results. In doing this you will ensure that your fruit plants and trees have all the necessary nutrients to produce a good crop.

Fruit Tree FertilizerMost people don’t realize that fruit trees require a different fertilizer to other types of trees. Feeding too much nitrogen to a fruit tree will encourage it to put out a tremendous flush of vegetative growth with very few flowers and not much fruit. For fruit trees use Culterra Fruit & Flower 6:1:5 (21), which is high in potassium.

Vita Flora 5:1:5 (33) SRN + trace elementsOur Vita Flora 5:1:5 (33) SRN + trace elements is a well-recognized fertilizer in the industry for growing ornamentals and indigenous trees. The fertilizer is free of chlorine, an element that is detrimental to plant growth. The nitrogen component of the fertilizer is in a slow-release form, which lasts for up to 5 months. Essential trace elements have also been added to the fertilizer.

Why go indigenous?There is a growing interest amongst South Africans in planting indigenous trees in their gardens and public areas. A tree species that is indigenous to your area will be best suited to your local climate and will therefore thrive in the natural temperature, rainfall and soil conditions.

Trees form a vital part of our gardens, providing interest, shade, height, structure and beauty. Before deciding on which tree to plant consider your space and the shape, size and root system of the tree. It is worth taking note of the fruit and flowers and whether the tree is evergreen or deciduous.

The benefits of composting when planting:When planting out indigenous plants it is always advisable to mix Culterra Compost with your garden soil 1 part to 1 part. Culterra Compost is totally natural as it is made from dead and decaying plant material. The product improves the water holding capacity and air filled porosity of the soil, which in turn assists with plant growth. The introduction of compost to the soil introduces microbes into the vicinity of the plant roots which are essential for releasing plant nutrients to the roots.

Superphosphate / Bone Meal Both these fertilizers are sources of phosphates which is an essential plant nutrient for root growth and to ensure that newly planted plants get off to a good start. Bone meal serves the same purpose as superphosphate and is a source of calcium and magnesium which are two essential elements for plants. Add to planting holes when planting trees.

Organics 7:1:5 (19) + TE FertilizerOur organic fertilizer is specially made for those who prefer to use organic products in the garden. Culterra Organic 7:1:5 (19) + TE fertilizer is slow-release and has a low odour. Natural trace elements in the fertilizer are available to plants.

Culterra Eco Pellets – can be used as a general purpose, natural fertilizer in and around the garden and in your vegetable patch. The product is ideal for soil improvement and the planting and feeding of established plants. 2 kg; 5 kg; 10 kg; 20 kg. Nursery Stakes

Culterra supplies a complete range of CCA treated nursery stakes. Nursery stakes are essential for training the stem of a tree to be straight and encouraging vertical growth in trees. They are excellent for supporting single stemmed trees, roses and shrubs.

BIRDS

Southern Africa boasts some of the world’s most beautiful bird species. Attracting them into your garden is easy if you create the right environment.

Use a bird feeder for bits of fruit, bread and bird seed during cold winters but remember to feed at irregular intervals or birds become lazy and too dependant on your tray. It is best to entice them into your garden by providing safe nesting and roosting sites, permanent fresh water and a natural source of food. By planting a selection of indigenous food plants you will ensure that your favourite birds visit more often.

Below is a guideline on what you should plant to attract the birds you like:

Insect eatersSome of the trees and shrubs that fit this purpose are all Acacias, the coral tree (Erythrina lysistemon), tree fuschia (Halleria lucida), weeping boerbean (Schotia brachypetala), buffalo thorn (Ziziphus mucronata), wild pear (Dombeya rotundifolia), Cape honeysuckle (Tecoma capensis) and wild honeysuckle (Turraea floribunda). Other excellent flowering plants are Aloes especially as they flower in winter when there are few other resources for insects. Flycatchers, shrikes and bee-eaters are just some of the species you could attract.

Seed eatersDelicate and colourful waxbills, finches, firefinches, canaries and bronze mannikins, are best attracted by leaving some tufts of grass to grow tall enough to set seed. Seed-eating birds frequent most grass species. Attractive grasses for the garden are Melinis nerviglumis, Panicum ecklonii, Panicum maximum, and Phragmitis australis.

Fruit-eating birds To mention a few - all indigenous fig trees, the tree fuschia (Halleria lucida), Transvaal red milkwood (Mimusops zeyheri), sourplum (Harpephylum caffrum) and white stinkwood (Celtis africana) all produce highly attractive fruits and berries in abundance. Bulbuls and turacos will delight!

Nectar feedersGood nectar-producing species are the coral tree (Erythrina lysistemon), Cape honeysuckle (Tecoma capensis), red-hot pokers (Kniphofia praecox), proteas, pincushions, aloes and the tree fuschia (Halleria lucida). Iridescent sunbirds will no doubt appreciate your efforts.

When filled with fresh water a bird bath is the ideal garden ornament to attract wild bird species to your garden. A must have for all bird lovers.

Macadamia Nut Shells Bark Chips Landscapers Mix

You don’t need to be a landscape designer to create a beautiful garden. You might feel overwhelmed at first but start by gathering ideas from the internet, books and magazines. Decide on a style and theme that compliments your house and draw up a rough landscape design before you rush out and buy. If it is within your budget you may want to use a landscape architect as this could save you money in the long term. You could choose to complete the project in phases.

Before you make your plan draw up a list of all the things you need and want in your garden. This may include a patio and entertainment area, pool area, fire pit, herb and vegetable garden, rose garden, kids play area and grassed area. Remember to consider the position of the sun and wind, which is important for entertainment areas. Once you have created your spaces and positioned them correctly, link them together with pathways. Always consider the movement of people and pets around the house.

You will need one or more focal points within the garden which will catch your eye. This adds interest to your garden and may be in the distinctive form of a garden sculpture, pergola and bench or simply a plant or tree. Decide on the type of landscaping materials you will need to complete your project and work out a costing. Review your final plan before getting started and make sure you are happy.

Start by removing any rubble or unwanted plants if it is an existing garden. Work on levels for drainage. Do your hard construction first such as decks, patio, pathways, retaining walls, seating, fire pit, edging etc. Install your irrigation system if needed and prepare your soil for planting.

When choosing your plants always consider the amount of space you have available and the size the plant will reach when fully grown. Plants change over time - be patient and it will be rewarding to watch these changes. Take time to look at the preference of the plant such as sun/shade, cold/frost hardy, water requirement, deciduous/evergreen, flowers and roots. When planting against a wall or building, start with tall plants like trees and shrubs at the back and plant lower growing groundcovers towards the front of the flower bed.

Always think of the environment and how you can make that small difference. You can attract an abundance of wildlife to your garden by planting a variety of indigenous plants in urban areas. Water is another precious commodity and you should consider harvesting rainwater by installing a rainwater catchment system. Once your garden is complete it will

add value to your home and enjoyment to your family life.

Playpen SandWashed Silica Sand

Our new pebble range offers three different sizes: small, medium and large. They are perfect for pathways. Try them between succulents for that modern indigenous look.

Macadamia nut shells also give that decorative finish to your garden while encouraging beneficial soil organisms.

MULCHING

Decorative bark chips

Designing your garden

Sand products

Not only are bark chips decorative but also extremely functional in your garden. They are ideal for covering borders, flowerbeds and footpaths and for filling in between sleepers and stepping stones. Bark acts as a mulch and can reduce garden maintenance by suppressing weeds and retaining moisture in the soil. They will insulate the roots of plants during frosty periods and can prevent soil erosion with heavy rain. Culterra Decorative Bark Chips are available in 9mm, 25mm and 50mm pieces and are packaged in 5dm

When growing plants in containers it is advisable to use a good quality planting mix. Some of the problems associated with growing plants in containers is that the planting medium dries out too quickly.

Culterra’s Potting Mix has added water retentive raw materials that will ensure water retention and healthy growth.

Choose your potting mix based on quality and not price! A low cost potting mix often lacks the necessary balance to grow healthy plants.

CARBON GARDENING & GARDEN ACCESSORIES

Earthworm farmingCarbon gardening promotes the recovery of organic materials that for generations have been lost through waste buried in landfills.

It is the reversal of putting CO2 into the atmosphere. To reduce our carbon footprint we can plant trees and shrubs that will capture and store CO2 or make our own compost that is manufactured from dead or decaying plant material. Culterra manufactures earthworm farms. Green waste and organic matter from your kitchen can be placed in the earthworm farm, the compost that is generated can be worked into your garden and the liquid can be diluted with water and used as a liquid feed. Our Vermicompost makes for the perfect environment in which the worms can thrive.
