Rolawn SuDS & Rain Garden Soil gives your garden a practical way to manage rainwater. It supports plants that enjoy free-draining, alkaline conditions, and it keeps your outdoor space looking smart and functional. If you want to reduce standing water after heavy rain, this soil works hard for you. It encourages water to soak into the ground instead of running off hard surfaces, which protects local drainage systems and lowers the chance of flooding.

Why Your Garden Benefits

This soil balances infiltration, retention, and filtration. Water enters the ground quickly, stays where plants can access it, and passes through organic matter that helps improve quality. It suits rain gardens, borders, and landscaping projects that need reliable drainage. You save time dealing with puddles and enjoy healthier planting areas.

You can use Rolawn SuDS & Rain Garden Soil in small domestic gardens or large projects. The soil arrives peat-free and comes from traceable sources within the UK. Every batch goes through independent testing for over 70 parameters, so you can feel confident that contaminants stay within safe levels. This gives you soil that behaves consistently and supports the kind of planting you choose.

A standard bag holds around 0.5 cubic metres or 500 litres when packed. It covers up to 10 square metres at 50 millimetres depth or up to 2.5 square metres at 200 millimetres depth. These figures make it easy to plan quantities before you start work.

Helps Reduce Flood Risk

This soil allows water to percolate freely. Water moves through the soil profile instead of building up on the surface. You ease pressure on drains during storms and high rainfall. Homes in towns and cities benefit the most because paved surfaces can overload drainage networks. Using SuDS soil in rain gardens and planting beds creates extra capacity where it counts.

Good for Wildlife

UK wildlife needs places to shelter, eat, and breed. Rain gardens provide those spaces. When you introduce plants that suit free-draining soil, you attract insects, bees, butterflies, and birds. These species visit your garden for nectar, seeds, and cover. Over time, they help pollinate your plants and support a healthy environment. Small changes in your garden can benefit local ecosystems, and SuDS soil gives you the foundation for those improvements.

Practical Tips

Choose plants that tolerate alkaline soil. Native species often do well. Position your rain garden where water naturally collects. Allow water to run into the area from roofs, driveways, and paths. Keep the soil uncompacted, so it drains as intended.
