DESCRIPTION
Succulent Gritty Mix is ideal for a wide variety of succulents and other dry-weather plants. It contains more organic matter and retains more moisture/nutrients than our cactus soil.
WHAT’S IN IT?
- Organic: coconut coir, coconut husk chips, recycled forest products
- Inorganic: pumice, grey granite, calcined clay, expanded clay, perlite
WHAT PLANTS LOVE IT?
Well-suited for plants like Aeonium, Aloe, Cotyledon, Crassula Jade, Echeveria, Portulacaria Afra Elephant Bush, Graptopetalum, Haworthia, Kalanchoe, Sansevieria Snake Plants, Sedum, Sempervivum Hens & Chicks, Senecio String of Bananas Dolphins or Pearls, etc.
FUN FACT
This mix utilizes recycled coconut chips and coir, an otherwise wasted byproduct of the coconut industry. Of the 50 million coconuts produced around the world each year, about 85% of the husks are discarded as trash. As a soil component, the ground husks offer excellent aeration and water retention.
