Soil Health

There’s an old saying that a garden is only as healthy as its soil. The ideal soil is dark, crumbly loam that smells sweet and earthy, teeming with life.

 

Most urban and suburban areas were literally “scraped” during construction, removing the topsoil and many of the microorganisms that made it alive. The remaining dirt can be practically inert. Weeds won’t even grow in such a barren landscape. Established shrubs are able to hang on, especially if fertilized.

 

To “wake up” the soil in such an area, we apply Holganix, an organic product containing a wide range of beneficial microorganisms that hit the ground running and jump start the soil’s ecosystem. To keep things humming along, we apply a layer of fresh organic mulch. Within a week or two of treatment, you’ll see an improvement in plant vigor.
