Overview
Vitax Silver Sand 20kg
Lime-free horticultural grade sand
Silver Sand is a favourite amongst gardeners as it provides countless options for use in and around the garden.
Lime-free, it primarily consists of quartz particles which are not coated in iron oxides, making it perfect for adding to growing media.
Silver Sand:
- Improves aeration
- Ideal as a top dressing for lawns
- Can be mixed with peat to make compost for cuttings
Washed and dried, Silver Sand has a horticultural grade quality which is perfect for seed sowing, setting cuttings and for use in compost mixes.
Silver Sand can also be mixed with peat and loam for a perfect lawn top dressing.
Alternatively, Silver Sand can be used to mark out seed beds or forked into heavier soils to improve drainage and reduce water-logging.
Unlike other grits and sands, Silver Sand is not usually used for mortar or concrete when paving or laying slabs.
