Horticultural Perlite 100 Litre Bulk Growing Medium for Potting Mixes, Propagation, Cacti, Succulents and Orchids
Give potted plants a lighter, better-balanced growing medium with a 100-litre bulk bag of horticultural perlite. Mix it into potting soil or use it as a stand-alone medium for propagation, cacti, succulents and orchids.
Perlite is a lightweight volcanic growing medium that stays stable over time. Its open particle structure supports aeration and drainage while retaining water at the particle surface, helping roots receive air without leaving excess moisture sitting in the mix.
Key Features
- Use perlite alone or blend it with vermiculite, pumice, peat moss, bark or other organic media to create a mix suited to your plants.
- The sterile medium is ready to handle without further sterilisation, making it practical for propagation beds, cuttings and seedlings.
- Perlite does not break down, so growing media can retain their structure through repeated use and replanting.
- Improved air-water balance supports drainage, reduces compaction and encourages a more even root system throughout the growing medium.
- Choose the grade that suits your growing setup: P400 Medium or P500 Coarse, with distinct particle sizes for different applications.
