Recycled crushed, washed and dried whelk shells. The large 12 litre bag contains approximately 11kg of shells, and is ideal for garden borders, beds, rockeries or as an outdoor plant pot topper.
Buy in single bags or enjoy the new 4 for the price of 3 offer.
The crushed shells can also be used for drainage or added to soil for aeration.
They also work well as mulch and as a gentle, natural slug deterrent when a generous layer is added around the base of plants - pour don't sprinkle!
This bag will give a generous coverage for approximately 1/2 a square metre and contains 3-4 times more crushed shells than our small hand-tied bags.
Our Potting Cup is the perfect tool for scooping and decanting shells and other substrates.
* This is a natural product from the sea. We do our best to remove any foreign material.

Four big bags for the peice of three ...well worth it. Excellent topper material for pots and have used both as a drainage layer (will take a few months to see results) and around newly planted beans peas and turnips . The shell lawer so far does appear to keep slugs and snails at bay. Hurray
This is just brilliant at keeping unwanted snails and slugs chomping on my hostess and newly emerging soft leaves. Trying it round young regal lilies in the hope of spotting bright red lily beetles!
Excellent product, make's a great cover for your potted plants. Also make's an excellent natural barrier against slug's and snail's which no gardener want's eating your plant's.
One method of protecting Hosta is to but a barrier round them I am using your shells in an experiment
Look lovely on my house and outdoor planters
