Grassland - Specialty Soil Blend

This blend is for your grassland and subtropical forest plants. It’s designed to mimic the rich, loamy, rocky soils of the African grassland, complete with volcanic ash and our rich Grassland blend.  This soil is much heavier than our other soils to support tall, thick, heavy plant stalks, but is still very porous.

Environment match: plants that are ‘hard to figure out’ because their root systems include rhizomes.

Some plants that LOVE this soil

• Dracaena deremensis, fragrans, and massangeana varieties (Lisa, Janet Craig, Mass cane/corn plant, Rikki, marginata, dorado, Lemon Lime, Hawaiian Sunshine, Malaika, Warneckii, Limelight, reflexa, Florida Beauty, etc)
