About the SYBASoil Premium Alocasia Mix

Discover the benefits of our Alocasia mix, specially formulated with vermiculite instead of the usual perlite. Vermiculite does an excellent job of retaining moisture and releasing it gradually into the soil, making it easier to keep your Alocasia evenly moist. This not only ensures healthy growth of your plant, but also shortens the time you need to water, so you have more time to enjoy your beautiful Alocasia!

Benefits of this Mix

The Alocasia mix offers better moisture retention because vermiculite retains moisture longer than perlite, which helps maintain consistent moisture in the soil. This results in healthier roots as the moisture is released gradually, keeping them well hydrated. Thanks to the moisture-retaining properties of vermiculite, you also have to water less often, which makes maintaining your plant easier.

How to use

Using the Alocasia mix is ​​simple and efficient. Start by carefully removing as much old soil as possible. Squeeze the pot while holding it sideways to loosen the plant and hold the roots under lukewarm tap water to remove the last bits of old soil. Also remove any dead leaves with scissors. Then add a small layer of Alocasia mix to the bottom of the pot. Place the Alocasia in the pot and slowly add the Alocasia mix to the sides to fill the pot. Make sure the point where the roots touch the plant is just below the mix. Lightly press the mix into the pot and water the Alocasia mix thoroughly after repotting to firmly establish the mixture and the roots.
