forest floor potting mix Rainforest Floor

This rich blend is full of organic matter and contains our acidic Habitat blend, complete with seed meals, mycorrhizal inoculant, and volcanic and glacial rock dusts. It holds slightly more water than the Tropical Climber blend and has a finer texture due to the addition of rice hulls.

Environment match: rainforest floor plants that creep along the ground.

• Thaumatophyllum  (selloum/bipinnatifidum, xanadu, etc)
• Philodendron (rojo congo, green congo, brasil, etc)
• Palms
• Syngonium (arrowhead vine, nephthytis)
• Spathiphyllum species (peace lily)
• Pachira aquatica (money tree)
• Aglaonema species (Chinese evergreen)
• Ficus benjamina, alii, amstel king, elastica, and lyrata (or use our Tropical Climber blend!)
• Aralias (Polyscias fruticosa, balfouriana, scutellaria, etc)
• …and any other ground-dwelling tropical plants.

Please note: the "generous quart," "2-gallon," and "10-gallon bulk" sizes are premixed wet soil. The DrySoil (gallon and 10-gallon bulk) are shipped dry, so you can mix them at home. These must be mixed in full, all at once, as they contain separate ingredients like coco cookies or bricks, chunks of coco chips, and a separate packet of 'tasties'  - please plan to mix the entire amount when purchasing the bulk dry soil and have a large enough container to rehydrate and mix a large quantity of soil.
