First created as a custom Begonia blend, this mix has been refined through years of use and observation. Its moisture-retentive yet airy formula has proven to be ideal not just for Begonias, but for a wide variety of other thirsty tropical plants that thrive with consistent hydration.
The Tropical Rain Mix is made for plants that love to stay consistently moist — Begonias, Calatheas, ferns, Fittonia, and other humidity-hungry houseplants. It holds water beautifully while still staying breathable, giving delicate roots exactly what they need.
What’s inside:
-
Vermiculite → locks in moisture for steady hydration.

-
Worm Castings → gentle nutrition and beneficial microbes.
-
Perlite → prevents the mix from becoming too heavy or soggy.
