Know before you buy
While formulated for patio plants and hanging baskets, this mix works well for indoor containers that require high aeration and moisture retention. Ensure your indoor pots have adequate drainage holes to prevent the soil from staying too wet.
This mix comes pre-enriched with a controlled-release fertilizer and earthworm castings, providing sustained nourishment for your plants. You generally won't need to add supplemental fertilizer for the first few months of the growing season.
RESiLIENCE® is a proprietary additive that helps strengthen plant cell walls. This leads to improved plant vigor, better resistance to environmental stress, and overall healthier growth.
Container soil can sometimes become hydrophobic, making it difficult for water to penetrate the root zone. The wetting agent ensures that water is absorbed evenly throughout the mix, preventing dry pockets and keeping your plants consistently hydrated.
No, this mix is designed for high moisture retention, which is the opposite of what succulents and cacti require. It is best suited for annuals, perennials, and leafy container plants that prefer consistent moisture.
While some settling is natural in any container mix, the inclusion of horticultural-grade perlite and pumice helps maintain structural integrity and aeration. This prevents the soil from compacting too tightly, allowing roots to breathe throughout the season.
