HOW DO I KNOW I'M PICKING THE RIGHT SOIL?

Well, of course if your plant is an Alocasia, the Alocasia mix is probably the best bet! However, if your plant isn't the namesake of any of our mixes, then it’s all about which of the mixes matches that plant’s needs, such as moisture retention. For instance, our Calathea and Maranta mix is also great for begonias as they both enjoy their soils staying lightly moist. Or conversely, our Cacti and Succulent mix is great for sansevieria. Which enjoy a decent dry out between waterings, so a quick-drying cacti mix is probably the best shout! If you’re stuck on what to pick of course contact us via the contact form, Instagram or Facebook and we will happily help you out.
