Need soil for your garden?

Landscaping soil, also known as topsoil or garden soil, is a natural soil perfect for gardening as it is rich in nutrients. It is found in the ground and can be mixed with other ingredients to promote healthy plant growth. There is a vast variety of landscaping soil available in the market and, contrary to popular belief, they do make a difference to the kind of garden you end up having.

Consider the types of plants you want to have in your garden as different plants thrive in different soils. It is important to learn which type of soil is the best for your specific gardening needs as each type of soil has its own advantages and disadvantages. If you choose your soil carefully, you will have a lush, productive garden.

Soil is normally sold by the cubic yard. If you need to calculate the amount of soil your project needs, please use the material calculator and enter in your width,length and depth in feet. If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to give us a shout at 403-818-5857. We’d be happy to be of help.

Garden mulches are your first line of defense against weeds

Mulch is any insulating or protective material that is spread over the surface of your garden soil as a covering.

The benefits of applying mulch include:

  • suppresses weed growth
  • retains nutrients and moisture in the soil
  • maintains even soil temperature
  • prevents soil erosion
  • enhances the visual appearance of the garden area

Property access approach

We recently installed a new gravel acreage approach (access to the property from the main road) on our client’s rural property.

Gravel is a good choice for an approach (+/or driveway) as it’s long-lasting, absorbs and sheds water efficiently, prevents excess gravel loss, potholes and other problems. On this project there was also a ditch that had to be considered. As with the approach, we designed it to allow for efficient water flow, erosion prevention, gravel loss, and any other problems that may arise.

The images below highlight our attention to detail and quality of workmanship. The approach to this acreage was clay mixed with larger rocks about three inches or so then 3/4 crush over top.

If you have any questions, need a little advice, or even help with your gravel project, please feel free to contact Rick at Calgary Landscape Supplies at 403-818-5857.

Adding beauty & warmth to your outdoor living space

Here at Calgary Landscapes, my son Kai and I recently built a beautiful garden area and fire pit for our client. A backyard fire pit is not just a nice addition to your backyard landscape, it creates a lovely retreat on those cool Calgary late summer/fall evenings. A must if you’re looking forward to entertaining and hanging out in the open air making S’mores with (vaccinated) family and friends this summer.

To decide on the right design for your garden area/fire pit layout consider how you want to use your it, for example:

  • what are your outdoor entertainment needs?
  • will it mostly be used by your family?
  • do you want to keep it simple or is fancy more your taste?
  • do you want your fire pit to be part of your existing landscape or are you planning more landscaping to highlight your fire pit?

Calgary Landscapes provided the materials and supplies for our client’s attractive and functional fire pit/landscaping project in the images below.

For more information on design tips and ideas and materials needed to create your landscape your fire pit, give Calgary Landscape Supplies a call at 403-818-5857. Our experts have the expertise to get your project underway so you can enjoy some outdoor living this summer.
