Japanese Volcanic Clays Blended by Hand into Premium Potting Mixes for Cacti and Succulents
CENTURIES OLD JAPANESE TECHNIQUES
The soils and substrates we use in our mix have the benefit of centuries of road-testing by Japanese horticulturalists for use in growing delicate and sensitive bonsai. Today, similar mixes are used by some of the best cacti and succulent growers in Japan and Asia.
UPDATED FOR GROWERS IN THE UK AND EUROPE
Our premium cactus and succulent mixes are a carefully balanced blend of Japanese volcanic clays, grits, pumice, and a dash of coconut coir which results in a fast-draining substrate that can help you maintain the right moisture levels for your plant’s fragile, rot-prone roots.
We have developed this for use in our own small scale nursery where we take a special interest in Copiapoa, Euphorbia, Haworthia, Gymnocalycium and Sulcorebutia.
