Fast-Draining Cactus & Succulent Potting Mix from Rosy Soil - Sand, Pumice, Mycorrhizae & Biochar for Vibrant Growth & Bigger Blooms
Cactus & Succulent Mix, reimagined. This fast-draining, chunky blend is designed for desert plants that demand airflow, structure, and minimal moisture. Infused with biochar, pumice, and living microbes, it supports strong root systems, vibrant growth, and bigger blooms. Made in the USA, peat- and synthetic-free, and packaged in eco-friendly, resealable bags. We use this exact mix to sprout our Stephanias!
Ingredients
A balanced blend of mineral grit, organics, and biology.

- Pumice – Porous volcanic rock for aeration and drainage.
- Mycorrhizae – Symbiotic fungi that extend root systems and improve nutrient uptake.
- Sand – Coarse grains prevent compaction and improve drainage.
- Pine bark fines – Add structure and oxygen pathways around roots.
- Compost – Recycled green and wood waste, enriching the mix with natural nutrients.
Benefits
- Prevents root rot – Chunky, fast-draining texture mimics arid habitats.
- Nutrient-dense – Enriched with compost, biochar, and worm castings for sustained plant health.

- Eco-conscious – Carbon-neutral, peat-free, and plastic-neutral packaging made from sugarcane.
- Versatile – Perfect for cacti, succulents, caudex plants, aloe, jade, echeveria, haworthia, terrariums, and other drought-tolerant plants.

We ship from Orange County, and we only ship within the United States. We do not ship to Hawaii / Canada / International. We typically ship on Mondays or Tuesdays to avoid plants being stuck in transit over the weekends, but we may sometimes ship later in the week depending on order volume. With that said, we cannot guarantee or control delivery time. If delivery time is a concern, please opt for upgraded shipping.
We take great care when packaging and preparing your plants for shipment. They'll be shipped either in a nursery pot in soil or sphagnum moss, or shipped bare root wrapped in sphagnum moss or other damp material to retain moisture. We also add poly-fil around the plant for padding, then wrap it in bubble wrap, and finally add packing peanuts for extra cushion to ensure a safe and clean transport.
We also offer local pick-up if you're in the Orange County area.
