Potting mix, raised-bed blends, amendments, coco coir, perlite and mulch. The most common and most expensive mistake here is putting garden soil in a container, where it compacts, holds water and suffocates roots — containers want a soilless mix.

For raised beds, a blend of topsoil, compost and an aerating material in roughly equal parts is a reliable starting point, and beds settle several inches in the first season, so budget more volume than the arithmetic suggests.

Mulch two to three inches deep, pulled back a couple of inches from stems and trunks. Mulch piled against bark holds moisture there and invites rot; the volcano of mulch around a tree is a common and genuinely damaging habit.
