Molly's Succulent Mix - 3 Dry Quarts

Succulent and cactus collectors are notoriously particular about soil. Most "cactus mix" sold at big-box stores is repackaged peat-based potting soil with sand mixed in: too water-retentive, prone to root rot, the opposite of what serious collectors want.

Molly's Succulent Mix is what those collectors order from specialty soil shops. Gritty, mineral-heavy, fast-draining. Made for succulents, cacti, hoya, and caudex plants. The customer who reads succulent forums is the customer asking your staff "do you have a real succulent mix?" This is the bag they want.

Premium, natural ingredients selected for succulent health:

• Akadama (volcanic clay aggregate, imported from Japan)
• Lava rock
• Hyuga (volcanic pumice, imported from Japan)
• Pumice stone
• Orchid fines (fir)
• Assorted nutrients
• Mycorrhizae
• Beneficial bacteria (Rhizobacteria) on an organic fibrous substrate carrier

Combined for a balanced pH environment. Soil-free.
