Westland 10200055 Bonsai Potting Compost Mix and Enriched with Seramis, 4 Litre, Brown

Good potting mix for starting cacti growth.

I used this on my cactus, sempervivum and echeveria that desperately needed repotting into a well draining soil it worked so well with them I also used it on my peperomia angulata and tradescantia zebrina because the soil I used before didn't drain well,was full of pests and my plants were looking miserable.For the peperomia angulata is still too early to talk because it's been only a week but my tradescantia's cuttings are looking very promising, they are looking more vibrant and I think that they are growing good quality roots because they look more colourful and healthy and the soil has a nice spongy consistency that looks like it would provide a nice lightweight airflow and drainage that could give my baby's roots an environment to grow strong.The pack looked like it wouldn't pot many plants but I used it on 6 pots and I still have about half pack going so I would say that if you use it in 12cm pots it actually goes a long way.I'm half tempted to use it to grow other regular houseplants because it seems like good quality soil.

Good quality soil, arrived fast. Bought to re pot a palm and spider plant. Both looking much happier already. When arrived I took it out of the bag it was packaged in and the bag of soil had a split along a seam which meant I needed to use it straight away as it was leaking.

Arrived without packaging just in its own bag and for amazon was shocking, but saying that bag it comes in it tough and very strong, so all great ! feels nice soil, kind of thing and not clumpy ! nice price happy.

Good product. Sensibly priced and product size just right.

Plant doing well on its new grub.

I recently purchased the Westland 10200054 Cacti/Succulent Potting Compost Mix, enriched with Seramis, and I must say, I am extremely pleased with the results. After inheriting a Christmas plant from my late mother, I was determined to give it the best care possible, and this potting mix did not disappoint.The compost mix comes in a convenient 4-liter bag, which was more than enough for repotting my plant. The packaging was sturdy and sealed well, ensuring the freshness and quality of the compost mix was maintained.Upon opening the bag, I noticed the mix had a light and fluffy texture with a pleasant earthy smell. The addition of Seramis, a moisture-control additive, gave me confidence that my plant would get the right amount of water without risking overwatering. This was crucial, as cacti and succulents require well-draining soil to thrive.Using the mix was a breeze. I gently removed my Christmas plant from its original pot, shook off the excess soil, and placed it in a larger container filled with the Westland compost mix. The mix provided excellent support for the plant's roots, ensuring they were held in place securely. The texture of the compost mix also allowed for proper aeration, preventing root rot and encouraging healthy growth.Over the following weeks, I noticed a significant improvement in my Christmas plant's health. The leaves became more vibrant, and the plant looked overall more robust. The compost mix seemed to provide all the necessary nutrients it needed to thrive.I also appreciated the longevity of the Westland compost mix. Unlike other brands I have tried in the past, this mix retained its texture and moisture control properties for an extended period. It required watering less frequently, saving me time and effort.In conclusion, I highly recommend the Westland 10200054 Cacti/Succulent Potting Compost Mix enriched with Seramis. It not only provided my inherited Christmas plant with the optimal growing conditions, but it also surpassed my expectations in terms of quality and results. If you're looking to revive and nurture your cacti or succulents, this potting mix is definitely worth considering.

I don't know much about orchid potting mix so it may be absolutely fine, but it was very stony. Maybe not stones exactly. Lots of them.

Bark di pezzatura giusta con aggiunta di seramis, al momento sembra buona, ho rinvasato stamane un dendrobium Stardust che ha radici sottili, quindi la pezzatura del bark va più che bene, x fortuna non contiene torba causa di marchiume radicale, bisogna vedere a lungo termine come si comportano sia l'orchidea che il bark
