Best soil mixture I use is I combine one part cactus/succulent soil, one part perlite, one part peat moss, and one part orchid bark. Keeps enough moisture but lets the soil breather too.
By the way- gorgeous plants! Love all of them, but that Christmas Aloe!! πŸ₯°
I upsized sized my stomanthe and used a coco perlite 70/30 blend and it’s been doing wonders since. πŸ™‚β€β†”οΈ

Just got 2 rattlesnake prayer plants and will be doing the same pot mix for them as well.
@SillyPlantGirl thank you 😊

@SillyPlantGirl thank you so much ☺️
@SillyPlantGirl omg I just went threw your page beautiful everything everything is like wow 🀩 I didn’t know we can post cactus 🌡 ima give it a try πŸ˜€
@SillyPlantGirl I have a question πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ are the hawthoria plant a good plant to use this mix on to ❓
Hi Miriam- I think for that you might want cactus/succulent soil and mix in Perlite, Pumice and some Horticultural Samd (tiny pebbles). I also add some orchid bark soil (not big chunks), and all my succs and cactus are doing so well.
Miriam, I even gave some of my trees on here.
And thank you, I love all my plants- I can’t seem to stop buying! lol
@DevotedCowshorn I had never heard of Coco Cour before and since adding to my soils- big difference!
