- Enhanced Aeration: Promotes healthy root development by allowing essential oxygen to reach the roots.
- Improved Stability: Provides a stable base for alpine plants, preventing them from being dislodged by wind or rain.
- Nutrient Retention: While providing excellent drainage, this grit also helps retain essential nutrients, ensuring your alpines receive the nourishment they need.

Why Choose Alpine Potting Grit?
Alpine plants thrive in well-drained, gritty soils that mimic their natural mountain habitats. Ordinary potting compost often retains too much moisture, leading to problems for these specialized plants. Deco-Pak Chelsea Horticultural Alpine Potting Grit provides the perfect balance of drainage, aeration, and stability, creating the optimal conditions for healthy growth and vibrant blooms.
How to Use:
- Top Dressing: Apply a layer of grit to the surface of the soil around your alpine plants to improve drainage and prevent soil splash.
- Mixing with Compost: Mix the grit with your chosen compost at a ratio of [e.g., 1:1, 2:1 grit to compost] to create a free-draining potting mix.
- Base Layer: Use a layer of grit at the bottom of pots and raised beds to improve drainage.
