Carnivorous plants have very specific substrate requirements, needing nutrient-poor, acidic growing media with high moisture retention capacity. Flortis Bio Carnivorous Plant Substrate has been specially developed to provide ideal growing conditions for species such as Dionaea muscipula (Venus flytrap), Drosera, Sarracenia and other insectivorous plants.
Its composition based on blonde peat, neutral peat and perlite ensures a proper balance between water retention, root aeration and drainage, helping to prevent root rot problems. This is a product approved for Organic Farming, suitable for both new plantings and repotting.<\/p>\n
How to Use Fun Fact<\/strong>: Unlike most ornamental plants, carnivorous plants naturally develop in very nutrient-poor soils. For this reason, they should not be grown in universal substrates or fertilized conventionally, making it essential to use a specific substrate like this one to ensure their proper development.<\/p>\n Benefits<\/strong> Specifications<\/strong> Composition<\/strong> Carnivorous plants have very specific substrate requirements, needing nutrient-poor, acidic growing media with high moisture retention capacity.
