Did You Know?
Over 70% of orchids are epiphytes, meaning they grow on trees and absorb water and nutrients from rain and air—not dense soil. This chunky mix recreates those conditions, delivering oxygen and moisture right where roots need them most.
Watering & Care Tips
Skip the ice-cube method! Instead, water deeply about once a week (or as needed), allowing the mix to stay evenly moist without becoming soggy.
