Succulent & Cacti Soil Mix
Our custom soil mix is designed to mimic the natural arid environments where succulents and cacti thrive. It’s lightweight, fast-draining, and prevents water from pooling around roots, reducing the risk of rot and fungal growth. The combination of potting soil, coarse sand, and perlite or pumice ensures the right balance between moisture retention and aeration, promoting healthy root development.
The gritty texture allows roots to breathe, creating the perfect environment for drought-tolerant plants. This mix is versatile enough for a wide range of succulents and cacti, from delicate echeverias to robust barrel cacti. Whether used in pots, terrariums, or outdoor containers, this blend provides the essential foundation for vibrant and resilient plants.
