Topsoil

Is there a difference between topsoils?

Topsoils are comprised of varying degrees of sand, silt and clay. Sand is the primary ingredient, allowing proper drainage and porosity. Silt and clay offer the water drainage and cohesive properties necessary for strong root structure. Cedar Hill’s topsoils are distinguished by their content as well as their screened size. While many suppliers offer “screened” topsoil, ours is screened according to ½-inch and 3-inch sizes. This gives customers more options in choosing the soil most appropriate for their needs.
