Want to Try a Sample First?

Samples are available for the cost of shipping.

A sample provides enough material to inspect the appearance and composition of the mix, but it is not intended to complete a planting project.

If you decide to order 6 gallons or more, the sample freight cost will be reimbursed.

Hand-Packed for Convenient Storage

Our potting mix is hand-packed and bagged with a reusable tie, making it easy to close and store after using part of the package.

Storage tip: If the mix dries out before use, lightly moisten it to help prevent dust from forming.

Dust precaution: Dust from rock and potting soil products should not be inhaled. It may irritate people with sensitive lungs. Avoid creating airborne dust when handling the mix.
