Silver Sand for Horticulture – Horticultural Grade, Lime-Free Washed Silica Sand
Our horticultural silver sand is a high-quality, lime-free washed silica sand, specially graded for use in seed sowing, propagation, and growing media. Its fine, uniform texture makes it ideal for creating a free-draining yet stable environment for seedlings and young plants.
As a horticultural grade sand, silver sand improves drainage and aeration when mixed with compost or topsoil, helping to prevent compaction and reduce the risk of waterlogging. Being lime-free, it is safe for use with acid-loving plants and sensitive seedlings, without altering soil pH.
Washed to remove impurities and excess fines, this silica sand is clean, consistent, and reliable for professional and domestic horticultural use. It is particularly well suited to seed trays, propagation pots, and fine compost mixes where good moisture control is essential for successful germination.
