Jumbo Perlite

Perlite is a natural non-toxic volcanic rock used to help improve drainage, aeration and moisture retention in potting mixes, giving your plants access to the nutrition they need to achieve robust health and strong root development. Our coarse-sized perlite is particularly tailored for your exotic aroids, like Philodendron, Anthuriums and Alocasias, ensuring they have the perfect environment to flourish.

Perlite is perfect as an amendment to your potting mix or as a standalone growing media for cuttings and propagation. Using perlite to propagate your plants allows precise control over moisture levels which is critical for fragile new plants. It also allows careful control of the addition of liquid fertilisers

Unlock the Secret to Lush, Vibrant Plants

Perlite, a naturally occurring siliceous volcanic rock, is your secret weapon for ensuring your plants grow lush, vibrant, and resilient. When this unique rock is heated above 850°c, it expands, creating tiny, glass-like bubbles that make it lightweight and give it exceptional physical properties. This miraculous transformation is powered by the vaporization of water contained within the crude rock, contributing to its phenomenal capability to aerate any potting mix.
