Topsoil is often used for landscaping in order to grow plants because of its fertile properties. Topsoil is the uppermost layer of soil, usually the top 15-20 cm. It has the highest concentration of organic matter and microorganisms, and is where most of the Earth's biological soil activity occurs. Plants generally concentrate their roots in, and obtain most of their nutrients from this layer. Topsoil can be measured as the depth from the surface to the first densely packed soil layer known as hardpan. Topsoil can usually be bought in home improvement stores, landscaping supply stores, or a fertilizer warehouse.

When choosing topsoil, consider your budget and your yard type. Ask for advice at each store or greenhouse you visit. Inquire as to company contact information, availability, pricing, hours, services, quality of products, location and years in business. You want to be sure you're getting the best topsoil for your money. Whether you're looking for maintenance advice, or advice on the best shrubs or trees to plant, topsoil professionals can help. Ask each professional his or her advice on how best to use topsoil for your project. When choosing topsoil, research the store's background and responsibility thoroughly. Ask how long the company has been in the landscape business and whether it is a local, national or multinational company. Be sure you are choosing a topsoil seller with many years in the business. To make sure you find the best topsoil professional, take a drive by the location of the store or greenhouse to get a feel for physical appearance and integrity. Chat with the staff to see if they are courteous. Inquire as to what type of topsoil and products the store sells, and make sure it offers the type of garden topsoil you want, in addition to herbs, annuals, perennials, seed, gravel, slate, cement, rockery, and sleepers. Get advice on hardscapes, ponds, bark mulch, compost and manure, turf, waterfalls, plans, landscape design, environmental design, and garden design. You can get a lot of this information by browsing online as well. When you're ready to purchase topsoil, remember to target home improvement stores or nurseries that meet your specific needs. When considering how to find the right topsoil for you, check out a few different stores before committing to one, asking about price, services, availability, plans, company history and location.
