Introducing our premium potting mix tailored specifically for Carnivorous plants. This exceptional ready-to-use blend is carefully formulated to create optimal habitat for your carnivorous plants, ensuring they thrive in a consistently moist environment.
Ideal for carnivorous gardens, bog bowls and more indoor and outdoor botanical projects!
The key advantage of our Carnivorous Potting Mix lies in its nutrient-free composition. Carnivorous plants naturally inhabit regions with limited nutrient availability, relying on the insects they consume to fulfil their nutritional needs. By refraining from adding unnecessary nutrients, we prevent overwhelming the plants with an excess of substances like minerals and stronger fertilizers which they do not require.
In addition to being nutrient-free, our potting mix excels in providing excellent water retention. We have meticulously selected the finest ingredients, including Highland Moss sphagnum moss, perlite and coarse sand, to optimize the soil structure.
