- Orchids
This pre-mixed orchid soil is specially formulated to meet the unique needs of your orchids. By nature, orchids require slightly different conditions than typical houseplants. In the wild, they most often grow as epiphytes (without soil). Therefore, they need a soil that is airy and spacious.
This soil mix contains orchid bark, which provides air and space. Sphagnum moss provides extra moisture for the roots, and the activated charcoal prevents the accumulation of unwanted toxins.
Tip: This pre-mixed soil is also great for terrariums where you want to grow orchids.
Tips for orchid care

Most orchids also prefer to be watered with lime-free water. You can use rainwater, for example.
