    Carnivorous Plant soil mix

    Posted by Tom Rutter on May 2, 2017

    I had been using New Zealand Sphagnum with carnivorous plants w/ good results in the past but this season I've been dividing my plants and potting some in your soil mix and some in New Zealand Sphagnum just to see if I notice a difference. The mix is certainly cheaper and the results at least so far with the Venus Fly Traps looks promising.

    Potting soil mix

    Once I mixed the perlite into the meat moss, it was more or less ready to go.

    Various Plant mix, pots

    Posted by Ramona on September 26, 2015

    I enjoyed ordering from you and will continue since everything arrived in record time. If I remember correctly it was the day after I ordered it that I received it. The soil was enough to repot my plants and have extra for when my plants need repotting again. I was so happy! So when a company makes me happy, you can count on me to be a repeat customer. You make my plants happy and healthy too! Thank you so much.
