What we liked

  • + Screened to 1/4 inch (6-9 mm) for uniform particles, which suits a gritty bonsai mix.
  • + Listing describes pH neutral, porous pumice that stays mixed in and does not float up like perlite.
  • + Can be rinsed and reused, and also serves as a clean top dressing.

Trade-offs

  • - Only 2 lb, so mixing for several trees will need more than one bag.
  • - Listing warns that some natural dust forms in transit, so rinse before use if you want a clean mix.
