Victoria summers can be dry. Your garden does not have to struggle. 🌿

A few simple changes can help your soil hold moisture longer, reduce unnecessary watering, and keep your garden looking healthy through the season.

💧 Watering deeply, less often
🌱 Adding mulch to protect exposed soil
🚿 Using drip irrigation where possible
🌼 Choosing plants suited to Victoria summers
♻️ Improving soil health with compost

Mulch is one of the easiest places to start. It helps retain moisture, reduce weeds, and protect roots from summer heat.

Not sure how much mulch your garden actually needs?🌱

We created a simple Greater Victoria homeowner guide to help you measure your garden bed, use our fill calculator, and estimate how many cubic yards of mulch to order.

Mulch can help protect soil moisture, reduce weeds, and keep garden beds looking cared for through Victoria’s dry summer months.

Choose from Island Gold Mulch or Kelp Mulch, then order online for local delivery in Saanich, View Royal, Victoria, Oak Bay, Esquimalt, and the Westshore.

Most local mulch orders can typically be processed and delivered within 3 to 5 business days. 🚚
