QuestionAsk Charlie

We are just putting the finishing touches on our nearly completed house in Perth WA, our entire garden on 350 sqm is sand, and before the free landscaping comes in I want to prepare the sand and make it soil. where do I start as I don't want everything to be dead in 6 months. I would like to start with good nutritious earth, so I can slowly start our oasis?

Answer

Talk to your local landscape suppliers they will have a compost to improve the soil .... mix in as much as you can! I would also use a sugar can mulch on top of the plants as it breaks down quickly and adds organic matter to the soil/sand Charlie Albone Landscaping Expert
