Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix is based on Diatomite, a natural rock product mined in Australia. Diatomite consists of the skeletal remains of microscopic single cell fresh water plants known as diatoms. These small plants developed an opaline siliceous shell-like armor for protection. Over the millennia the fossil shells accumulated on the beds of fresh water lakes in Australia and compacted into the lightweight porous rock known as Diatomite. Over the last few years, Diatomite has been tested by orchid nurseries and proved to be advantageous to orchid growing at all stages of the plants' development.

Why is Aussie GoldTM  Orchid Mix so fantastic?

Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix retains more water than other mixes, and slowly releases moisture to the orchid's roots. Because all the ingredients are inert, the mixture does not deteriorate and so does not rot the root system.

Unlike commonly used media like bark, coconut husk and sphagnum moss, Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix can be reused when you need to repot after the orchid outgrows its container.

The problem of when and how much to water your orchid or pot plant can be forgotten. You cannot over-water your orchid using Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix.

Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix helps to keep pests to a minimum. The inclusion of diatomite in the medium means that slugs, snails and other pests cannot survive in the pot as the multi-faceted nature of the stone fatally damages the insects.

Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix is non-toxic and is environmentally friendly. It is sterile and pH neutral.

The problem of when and how much to water your orchid or pot plant can be forgotten. You cannot over-water your orchid using Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix.

Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix be used for other plants?

Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix was originally formulated for use on orchids. However, recent tests have shown that many other plants respond in an extraordinary way to being potted in Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix.

    • Tomato seedlings planted in Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix grew more than twice as fast and vigorously than normal potting soil.
    • Rose growers have experienced fabulous success using a specially formulated Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix made with large  Diatomite - blooms are larger and more floriferous, and plants are healthier.
    • Plants that are being grown semi-hydroponically, can be switched to Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix. They will require less tending and will reach maturity ahead of plants in other mixes.
    • Fruit trees and vegetables can be grown in Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix to increase the yield and fruit earlier than other soils.

 Use Aussie GoldTM Orchid Mix for potting African Violets, miniature roses, bonsai, plumeria, house plants, tomatoes, herbs and many other flowering plants.
