Planters and raised beds call for Horticultural Soil; in-ground beds do great with Garden Soil. Containers are a tougher environment — they drain fast, heat up, and give roots limited room — so they earn the premium blend.
Match the soil to the spot
| Where you're planting | Pick |
|---|---|
| Raised beds, planters, window boxes | Horticultural Soil |
| In-ground flower and vegetable beds | Garden Soil |
Both arrive ready to plant, sold loose by the cubic yard — a 4x8 raised bed filled 12 inches deep takes about 1.2 yards, so one truck handles several beds with extra for pots. Doing planters and in-ground beds the same weekend? Each material ships as its own load. Compare Horticultural Soil and Garden Soil, or call or text (617) 645-0987 and describe the project.
