How to Use:

Potting Cacti and Succulents

• Place a small amount of Bonsai Cacti Succulent Mix in the base of the pot.
• Position the plant in the centre of the pot; fill around edges to within 20mm of the top of the pot with Bonsai Cacti Succulent Mix.
• Press down gently.
• Water in well straight away and then solid water once a week depending on the needs of your plant variety.

Potting Bonsai

• Select your new bonsai pot, ensuring it is in correct proportion to your plant and has large drainage holes.
• Position your anchoring wires through the drainage holes placing bonsai mesh over the holes and cover with a layer of grit.
• Give your plant a thorough water, and remove it from its existing pot.
• Place a small amount of Bonsai Cacti Succulent Mix in the base of the pot.
• Place the plant in the pot and add mix until your plant is at the desired height and secure with the anchoring wires.
• Press down gently to firm up the mix.
• Water in well straight away, then continuing fairly regularly over the next few weeks, depending on the plant position and time of year.
