This highly porous Mexican butterwort mix contains crushed coral (calcium) making it a good substrate for butterworts that prefer neutral to slightly alkaline substrates. Fill a whole pot with it or use it as a topdressing for similar effect. Quantities are measured and shipped dry.

I really like this mix, it’s very pretty in the pot.

I was worried that the weighty plant soil would possibly crush plants during travel, but your packaging was the absolute best, and everything survived uninjured!! And I felt really good having the planting material my little beauties needed.

I mostly used the Mexican Butterwort Potting Mix for the base and topped the pots with the Deluxe Mix because I thought it was a good idea. So far, so good. Everyone is happy. And, it helps with the neatness factor. Truly, truly.
Tip: Add good quality spahg moss, or mesh to the bottom of the pots so the sand doesn’t just seep out over time.
