This Alocasia Mix is specially formulated to support plants that thrive in high airflow, fast drainage, and a structured root environment. Designed for Alocasia and other aroids, it prevents excess moisture buildup while maintaining just enough hydration to keep roots active and healthy.
·Pumice provides long-lasting aeration and structure, helping prevent compaction while supporting strong root systems.
·Perlite improves drainage and increases oxygen flow to the roots, reducing the risk of root rot.
·Chunky perlite enhances airflow even further, creating large air pockets that keep roots from becoming waterlogged.
·Buffered coco chips add structure and balanced moisture retention while preventing soil collapse over time.
·Tree fern fiber promotes excellent airflow and moisture balance while encouraging strong, fibrous root development.
·Biochar supports beneficial microbial activity and improves nutrient retention, helping roots establish more efficiently.
·Mycorrhizal inoculant enhances root function by forming beneficial fungal relationships that improve nutrient and water uptake.
The result is a chunky, breathable, fast-draining mix designed to promote strong roots, reduce rot risk, and support vigorous growth.
Ideal for alocasias, colocasias, and other tropical aroids that prefer airy, well-draining substrates.
Can be used for all stages of alocasia growth from corms, tissue cultures, pups, transplants and mature plants. Ideal for self-watering pots, non-draining containers (fill 1/4 of the way) and pots with drainage.
Note: Pots with draining may require more frequent waterings.
