Clover Top Soil 25L is a high-quality, finely screened natural topsoil for general garden and landscaping applications. Ideal for improving beds and borders, levelling lawns, filling raised areas and preparing ground for turf, it provides a practical soil-based material for a wide range of outdoor projects.
Topsoil forms the productive upper layer of garden ground and provides the foundation in which lawns, flowers, shrubs and other plants establish their roots. Clover Top Soil offers a convenient bagged option for projects where additional soil is required without the need to order loose bulk material.
Its finely screened consistency makes it particularly useful for garden preparation, levelling and general landscaping work where an even, workable material is required.
Supplied in a convenient 25 litre bag, Creation Horticulture supplies 80 x 25L bags per full pallet.

What can Clover Top Soil be used for?
Clover Top Soil is suitable for a wide range of general gardening and landscaping applications, including:
- Preparing ground before laying turf
- Levelling and repairing lawn areas
- Building up beds and borders
- General garden landscaping
- Filling shallow depressions in garden soil
- Creating and topping up suitable raised planting areas
- Adding soil to areas where existing levels need to be increased
- General ground preparation before planting
Topsoil for lawns & turf preparation
A well-prepared soil base is important when establishing a new lawn. Clover Top Soil can be used to help create an even surface before laying turf or establishing grass in suitable areas.
Prepare the existing ground by removing unwanted vegetation, stones and debris, then cultivate and level the area as required. Additional topsoil can be used where levels need correcting or where the existing soil layer needs building up.
Before turf is laid, the prepared surface should be reasonably level and firm without being heavily compacted. This gives new grass roots a suitable soil layer into which they can begin establishing.
Using topsoil in beds & borders
Clover Top Soil is also useful when creating new beds and borders or restoring soil levels in existing garden areas.
Where appropriate, topsoil can be combined with organic soil improvers to create a more suitable planting environment. Products such as well-rotted manure or soil conditioner perform a different role from topsoil by adding organic matter to the soil.
The requirements of the plants being grown should always be considered. Species requiring specialist acidic, alkaline or particularly free-draining conditions may require further soil preparation or a dedicated growing medium.
Using topsoil for raised beds
Topsoil can form an important part of the growing profile in raised beds and larger planting areas. Where significant volumes are required, it can be combined with suitable organic matter or other soil-improvement materials according to the intended use.
Clover's 25L bagged format is particularly useful for topping up existing raised beds, making localised adjustments or completing smaller projects where loose bulk soil would be inconvenient.
Topsoil vs compost - what's the difference?
Although both are widely used in gardens, topsoil and compost are not the same product.
Topsoil is soil-based material used for building up ground levels, establishing lawns, creating planting areas and general landscaping.
Potting and multi-purpose composts are formulated growing media intended primarily for applications such as containers, pots and other controlled growing situations.
Soil conditioners and farmyard manure are primarily used to introduce organic matter and improve existing soil.
Choosing the correct product for the job helps create a more appropriate root environment and avoids using expensive potting compost where a soil-based landscaping material is actually required.
How much area does a 25L bag cover?
Coverage depends entirely on the depth at which the topsoil is applied. A 25 litre bag contains a nominal 0.025m³ of material.
As a simple guide, 25 litres is theoretically enough to cover approximately 2.5m² at 10mm depth, 1.25m² at 20mm depth or 0.5m² at 50mm depth.
Actual coverage will vary because natural soil settles and compacts during handling, spreading and use. Allow additional material where substantial levelling, filling or changes in ground height are required.
