Why Decorative Aggregates Are Essential for Winter Garden Maintenance

Winter can turn gardens into muddy, waterlogged spaces. Decorative aggregates provide a durable, low-maintenance solution for enhancing pathways, flower beds, and drainage systems. Pair them with nutrient-rich topsoil to protect plants and create a polished, professional look.

  • Prevent Mud and Puddles: Decorative aggregates stabilize surfaces and improve drainage.
  • Protect Plant Roots: Add a layer of topsoil to insulate and nourish soil during winter.
  • Enhance Visual Appeal: Decorative aggregates create a clean, polished look that lasts all year.

Upgrade Pathways with Decorative Aggregates and Pea Gravel

Slippery, muddy pathways are a common winter problem. Using pea gravel or gravel 20-10mm provides a non-slip surface that improves both safety and aesthetics.

Solve Drainage Problems with Decorative Aggregates

Heavy rains can cause water pooling in gardens. Use gravel 20-10mm to create effective drainage systems like French drains.

  • How to Do It: Dig a shallow trench where water pools, line it with weed control fabric, and fill it with gravel to improve water flow.
  • Recommended Product: Gravel 20-10mm

Level Lawns with Topsoil

Uneven lawns can be leveled and revitalized with nutrient-rich topsoil. This also prepares the area for spring planting.
