Fall Topsoil and Sod Installation Projects

38124590 - gardener applying turf rolls in the backyard

If you’re like many gardeners, you’ve been trying to wrestle down the overgrowth of the last hothouse months. Tangled vines may be strangling your late-flowering crepe myrtle. The Sweet William ground cover, which you intended to contain, may have run over your entire yard!

As you yank at dead branches and pull out stubborn weeds, you may finally find a clearing for fresh planting. One catch: the dirt at your feet looks like unwelcoming clay.

Rich Topsoil for Planting Bulbs

Have you always wanted an entire field filled with daffodils and tulips? Do you love the blanket effect of densely planted flowers? Once you clear a sizable space, you can plant bulbs to your heart’s content!

Here are some of the advantages of purchasing topsoil for your garden now:

  • You will help protect and nourish bulbs, so they can take root quickly.
  • You can save a bundle on large quantities needed for massive projects.
  • You will get a jump on the springtime by taking steps to prepare a season ahead.

Plenty of Time for Sod Installation

After you’ve yanked at unruly weeds, you may have torn up more grass than intended. When you step back and survey the damage, do you find yourself searching for an immediate remedy? We have a simple solution: sod installation!

Now that you’ve done the hard work of clearing space in your yard, you have plenty of time for sod installation. Many homeowners complete this project through October. You can even install sod in the winter.

For dormant sod installation without any green leaf tissue, one important point is to keep the sod pad moist. Our rainfalls will help during this phase, so that’s a reason to rethink gray days when you can’t go outside and sink your hands in the earth.

Save Money on Premium Topsoil

During the fall, you may want to tackle some outdoor home-improvement projects before the winter takes hold. Maybe you need to create a level path up your steep front lawn, so an elderly relative has wheelchair access to your home. For years, you may have wanted to install a shed for all of your gardening tools and supplies and decided that the time has finally arrived.

The good news is that you are finally taking care of overdue projects. However, as you dig up your landscape to accommodate these new elements, you may need to fill in and level off areas with topsoil. If you take care of this step now, you will have a jump-start on the next planting season!

Popular Topsoil Blend

At Superior Sod and Garden Supplies, we love to share titles and applaud partners who produce outstanding products. Without a doubt, we think that the highest-quality topsoil is the one that we carry exclusively from Parker Bark. If Big Al is the “Father of Sod” with 40 years of experience, then Mr. Parker is a good match as the “Father of Topsoil” who has continually created premium products for more than 25 years on 50 acres.

Magic Blend

The Parker Bark Topsoil is a perfect blend because of the following:

  • Certified compost mix including 15% turkey compost as well as a finely screened combination of black dirt and sand
  • Product is heated to make his topsoil WEED-SEED-FREE!!
  • Blend drains well with the inclusion of sand
  • Organic matter providing the ideal amount of moisture and nutrient retention

Additional Projects to Plan

After you finish your outdoor home-improvement projects, you can also start to prepare for others. Most gardeners need to do the reverse countdown back to spring and stay busy in the interim. Here are a few other projects requiring topsoil, and you can start to lay the groundwork now:

  • New lawns
  • Garden beds
  • Additional trees

Reddish Long Leaf Pine Straw: Low-Cost Mulch for Fall

Most gardeners are planners. We need to schedule projects and maintain order as the seasons change. If you’ve noticed the shorter days and slipping temperatures at night, you can feel the transition into fall.

As you shift with the season, you’ve probably started to think about protecting your bulbs. If you’ve doubled up on your planting efforts for a spectacular show next spring, you definitely want to ensure a good return. What’s an easy and decorative way to create a warm blanket of insulation during the upcoming months?

In a word: mulch!

Colorful Autumn Mulch

Although two kinds of pine straw are sold in Wilmington, N.C., we carry reddish pine straw. Instead of brown “slash” pine straw with shorter needles, we like the long needles, which range from 7 to 9 inches. Our responsive supplier provides same-day deliveries, so you know the bales are fresh!

In addition, we have a sheltered area at Superior Sod & Garden Supplies, where the pine straw stays completely dry during bad weather. As you start to spread mulch around your garden, you can depend on us to keep you fully supplied. To provide the best protection, you can use a generous hand because pine straw is one of the most affordable mulch options.

Advantages of Pine Straw

Along with lower cost, here are some of the other benefits of pine straw:

  • Protects the ground from wind, rain and snow
  • Adds nutrients to fortify soil and plants
  • Provides a natural and easy-to-spread material
  • Offers a material that generally remains in place
  • Blocks weed growth and stubborn roots
