Perlite

Lightweight, airy, and instantly recognisable by its bright white appearance, perlite is a must-have for improving drainage and root health. Made from natural volcanic glass that expands when heated, these small, porous particles create space in the soil, allowing air to circulate freely around roots.

Perlite doesn’t hold onto excess water, making it ideal for preventing soggy soil and root rot. It’s especially loved in indoor plant mixes, where good drainage is key. Whether you’re repotting houseplants or creating your own custom blend, perlite helps keep things light, balanced, and breathable.

What it’s used for
• Improving drainage in potting mixes
• Increasing aeration around plant roots
• Preventing soil compaction
• Mixing into aroid and indoor plant soil blends
• Propagation and cuttings (especially when mixed with other mediums)

Why you’ll love it
• Keeps soil light, airy, and well-draining
• Helps prevent overwatering and root rot
• Super easy to mix into any soil blend
• Ideal for aroids and most indoor plants
• A must-have for building healthy, breathable soil mixes
