Description

Perlite and vermiculite do two opposite, complementary things. Perlite creates air and lets water drain away; vermiculite absorbs water and gradually releases it to the roots. Brought together in one bag, they make a balanced soil improver, ready to mix in.

What it does

  • Balance at the roots: a light mix, neither dry nor soggy.
  • A good start for seedlings and cuttings.
  • A more airy indoor potting soil that compacts less.

How to use it

  • Seedlings and cuttings: half mix, half potting soil.
  • Houseplants: about 1 part to 3 or 4 parts potting soil, when repotting.
  • Stem cuttings: you can also use it on its own, well moistened, to root them.

Which size should I choose?

The 1 L bag is enough for a season of seedlings or a few cuttings. The 5 L bag suits repotting several plants and works out cheaper per litre.

Frequently asked questions

Why not perlite and vermiculite separately? You can, and it's useful if you want to adjust each one to your plants. The mix simply saves you doing it. Is it suitable for cacti? Vermiculite holds too much water for them. Choose our cactus and succulent mix instead. Mixed and packed at our Rabat studio. Delivery anywhere in Morocco for 40 MAD, payment on delivery, or collection from the studio at 6 Rue Zemmour, Aviation (Tuesday to Saturday, 10am–6pm).
