Odysseus Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Khelljuhg, your Drosera are looking great! What are the mix proportions used for the D. cistiflora in that third picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelljuhg Posted October 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Thanks for your comments! What are the mix proportions used for the D. cistiflora in that third picture? Well, as the medium for the D. cistiflora pot, I only use a kind of soil called 'kanumatsuchi' in Japanese, which we have traditionally used for growing plants.

Thanks Khelljuhg...I thought it was unique. I did a google search of "kanumatsuchi" and could really only find a few references to it. Among them I was directed to your Drosera Forum and found someone asking the same question getting the same reply from you. So, what are the secret ingredients for "kanumatsuchi"? I couldn't find much about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, kanumatsuchi is a sort of volcanic pumice of an ancient time. Its porous and acidic quality seems to be good for certain kinds of plants.

If that old volcanic pumice is only found near Japan...then I am sure it is expensive to find imported around Europe. But, I do like the look of it.
