These hardy houseplants are able to cope with most soils, but if you want to the very best out of your plant then this peat free Calathea & Maranta Potting Mix is just what you need. This finely balanced blend of Charcoal, Coco Chips, Coco Coir, Bark, Pumice, Vermiculite and Worm Castings has been specially formulated by houseplant experts to give your plants everything they need.
