Hidden Valley Hibiscus Potting Mix / Media

14 years ago

I saw this potting mix on the Hidden Valley Hibiscus website and was wondering if anyone has any experience with it? Their mix contains low salt coco coir and is pretty expensive after you factor in the shipping costs, but they do specialize in Hibiscus.

Just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this product and perhaps any suggestions on similar and cheaper alternatives. I'm also comparing the HVH potting soil to Jungle Growth which is sold only at Lowe's retail stores. How would you guys compare the two products?

Many thanks! :)

go to home depot and pick up a bag of cactus/ palm potting mix. cheaper, drains well, i put all my hibiscus in it among other plants and it works great. Add your own fertilizer to whichever plant you are planting at the time.
