Cactus & Succulent Potting Mix
Our cactus and succulent mix is specially formulated for drought-tolerant plants that hate sitting in wet soil. Fast-draining and gritty, just the way they like it.
Best for: Cacti, succulents, echeverias, aloes, haworthias, sedums, and other drought-tolerant plants.
Why the ingredients work:
- Coco coir holds a small amount of moisture to hydrate roots, then dries out quickly
- Perlite and vermiculite create a light, open structure that lets water pass through rapidly
- Horticultural sand replicates the gritty, mineral-rich soils these plants grow in naturally
- Potting grit adds more texture to the mix and promotes excellent drainage
- Worm castings supply gentle nutrients without the risk of over-feeding
How to use: Cacti love to live in terracotta or unglazed pot if you have one to hand. Fill the base with mix, place your plant, then backfill and firm lightly. Leave unwatered for a few days to let any disturbed roots settle, then water sparingly. Less is always more with cacti and succulents.
