Westland Citrus Potting Mix 10L

I used this when repotting a fairly large fig tree (around 1.6–2m tall) into a bigger pot, and it has worked really well. The compost is designed for citrus plants but is also suitable for other fruiting plants. It has a well-balanced mix (typically including loam, sand/grit and organic matter), which provides good drainage while still retaining enough nutrients. This is important as fruit trees don’t like to sit in overly wet soil. After repotting, the tree did show some initial stress (a few leaves dropped), which is normal, but after a few weeks it settled well and is now growing properly again. I also like that it doesn’t require excessive watering — it drains well and avoids the soil becoming too heavy or waterlogged. Overall, a good quality compost that supports healthy growth, especially for fruiting plants.

I use Westland citrus potting mix for my lemon trees and I’m very happy with it. It has the right balance of nutrients and soil structure. It also drains very well because it contains perlite and Seramis granules, which help prevent the roots from rotting. It also contains zinc and is peat-free, which is great. I have used other composts in the past, but this one seems to be the best for my needs.

Useful sometimes for my lemmon tree.

Wish I got more, don’t know how it’s working because after repotting plant is now stressed ( aren’t we all) time will tell if it survives

Good but too expensive

Great for my lemon trees

Good compost but ordered two bags and one split all along one side so when I opened the box it went everywhere hence three stars the bags are quit strong so I’m guessing it was split when it was packed !

Perfect for planting lemon pips
