The organic solution for the commercial gardener.

Ace of Herts has been successfully used throughout Hertfordshire by council contractors on school playing fields for total reseeding and renovation of worn patches.

The organic nature of the raw materials used and the production methods of the compost ensure that it is totally safe for this purpose. The high nutrient values and water retention properties gives the best possible start to any playing field.

Even if there is no need for renovation work, a top dressing of Ace of Herts worked into the soil with a harrow or rake invigorates the grass to produce stronger plants and after a few weeks a greener finish.

Landscape gardeners have found our soil conditioner invaluable when re-establishing old and unkept borders, Ace of Herts if dug into the soil, immediately improves the fertility levels and provides a deep bed finish by breaking up the compacted soil.

Other important areas in which Ace of Herts has been widely used is in the planting of trees and larger shrubs and park border mulching. All to often spring and summer tree planting schemes fail as once planted, having previously been cared for in a nursery environment, suddenly become orphans’ and after the initial watering on planting, are left to their own devices. As this is all too often just as we go into the dryer spells of late spring and summer the trees and shrubs need all the help they can get, not only to survive but to thrive and grow.

Ace of Herts gives plants and shrubs that added boost of nutrients to help establish a viable root system whilst the mulching and water retaining qualities of the compost ensure an insulated and localised water source for the plant during those important first few weeks.

Other important areas in which Ace of Herts has been widely used is in the planting of trees and larger shrubs and park boarder mulching. Ace of Herts gives them that added boost of nutrients to help establish a viable root system whilst the mulching and water retaining  qualities of the compost ensure an insulated and localised water source for the plant during those important first few weeks.

Ace of Herts has been  extensively used in the borders of some of Hertfordshire’s parks, recreation grounds and roundabouts. It is these sort of locations where watering is often non viable. This can present a virtual desert to plants during drier spells of weather. Water retention in the soil is vital or plants will die. A thick layer of compost will stop the drying out of the soil and help prevent weed growth whilst not encouraging the over wintering of common pests such as slugs and snails that other more traditional methods, like the use of bark Chipping’s.
