Lava stone - pumice (5L Bag)

Used in a ratio of 1/3^rd, it is suitable for planting 5 to 6 garden orchids

For Cypripedium, Dactylorhiza and Epipactis, mix 1/3^rd of fine lava stone (pumice), 1/3^rd of compost for aquatic plants (which usually contains sand and clay) and 1/3^rd of 'good' soil from your garden

The lava stone is very absorbent, and will help to keep your substrate moist (and therefore cool) during the summer period, while providing good drainage during periods of rain (avoiding surplus water).

For Pleione and Bletilla, an ordinary, humus-rich compost, which you can find at any garden centre, will suffice. For optimal results, mix it with 50% of soil from your garden, and possibly 10% of lava stone.
