Perennial Blend

This blend is formulated for organic growing in large pot, container, and bed culture where a coarse texture is preferred. Particularly suited for woody plants, shrubs, herbs, perennials, and the mulching of vegetable and flower beds (this is the mix we recommend if you need a complete soil to fill a raised bed.)

Ingredients

Blended from: manure compost; bark; crushed, washed screened granite/basalt blend; sphagnum peat moss; coconut coir; kelp; blood meal; gypsum; bone meal; vermiculite. 

Uses

• Perennials
• Large containers
• Raised beds
• Vegetable mulching
• New bed preparation

Best Practices

Prep For Use

No prep necessary. Keep moist in beds, planters, and containers for best performance.

Handling

Avoid drastic changes in moisture/saturation. Store undercover, out of direct sunlight. Protect from weed seed, petroleum products, and other contaminants.

Supplemental Fertility

Usually, no additional fertility is required. If roots have filled the container and fertility is needed, top-dress with Compost Plus and water-in. Raised beds can be annually amended with Manure Compost or Compost Plus.

Storage and Shelf Life

Store in a neutral environment which encourages moisture retention and protects from UV light. For optimal performance of living soil, we suggest using it within 8-12 months from the date of purchase.
