PROPAGATION MIX #121

A simple, airy growing medium for rooting plant cuttings and germinating Aroid seeds.

Tezula Propagation Mix #121 combines premium New Zealand sphagnum moss petals with washed, double-graded perlite to create a lightweight, moisture-retentive medium with excellent aeration and drainage.

Designed for rooting plant cuttings and germinating Aroid seeds, it helps maintain consistent moisture while preserving the air spaces essential for developing roots and seedlings.

WHAT MAKES MIX #121 DIFFERENT?

The right balance of moisture and air makes all the difference.

Our fluffy, stem-free New Zealand sphagnum moss petals retain and distribute moisture without the long fibers that can become entangled with delicate roots during transplanting.

Washed, double-graded Perlite #2 helps maintain an open, lightweight structure, allowing excess water to drain while keeping oxygen accessible to developing roots.

Just two carefully selected ingredients. Nothing unnecessary.

WATERING & USE

Moisten the mix evenly before use. Insert prepared cuttings with their rooting nodes appropriately positioned, or sow Aroid seeds on the moist surface.

Maintain consistent moisture without allowing the mix to become waterlogged. Adjust watering, humidity, temperature, and ventilation according to the plant species and propagation environment.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

Rooting and germination requirements vary between plant species. Some cuttings and seeds benefit from higher humidity, warmer temperatures, or a different moisture balance.

This is an unamended growing medium, so appropriate nutrition may be necessary as seedlings and rooted cuttings establish and begin active growth.

Also suitable for Nepenthes: This same formulation is available as our Nepenthes Potting Mix #121, making it an excellent option for growers cultivating tropical pitcher plants.
