    Perlite Medium Grain 3-6mm - 3L

    Perlite is a mineral substrate of volcanic origin, widely used in bonsai cultivation due to its lightness and excellent drainage capacity. Its porous structure allows it to retain some moisture without waterlogging the roots, preventing issues such as lack of oxygenation. This substrate ensures that roots have access to the oxygen they need for healthy growth.

    Its inert composition does not alter the soil's pH, making it an excellent option for custom mixes tailored to each species needs. Perlite can be used in combination with other substrates such as akadama, kanuma, or kiryuzuna to improve drainage and soil structure. It is particularly useful for bonsai that require well-draining soils, helping to prevent excess moisture.
