Select-A-Blend Orchid Mix
Make Your Own Mix
You can Make Your Own Mix from our extensive Select-A-Blend Menu of 48 unique orchid media choices and we will custom blend an orchid mix with precisely the media you select.
One orchid mix doesn't have to fit all, and our experience has taught us that orchids are each as unique as the environment they are growing in. Our mission is to provide you with the highest quality orchid mixes for your environment and growing conditions.
We use specialized low rpm equipment and old
fashioned hand blending to create all of our mixes
which treats the medium gently so as to protect
the qualities and characteristics of each ingredient.
All of our potting mixes are available in convenient
resealable bags. Each standard bag of orchid potting mix is a
generous overstuffed 13 inch x 18 inch size.
All standard orchid mix bags are made from 12 quarts of media. For customers needing larger quantities we offer THE BOX which holds almost 5 bags worth of Classic Orchid Mix. RePotme Classic mixes are also available as a Half Box. Our Imperial Orchid Mixes are also available in larger sizes. The Imperial Cube holds roughly 2 1/2 standard bags of mix.
THE BOX is available with any of our rePotme Classic Potting Mixes (except Inorganic). A stuffed 14" X 14" X 14" lined box with the equivalent of almost 5 standard bags of Classic Orchid Mix. Including a free white 1 quart scoop with each order, THE BOX is available for $91.75. If purchased separately, this quantity of Classic Orchid Mix with scoop would cost substantially more. Box and liner can easily be closed for use at a later time.

Q: How many Imperial Orchid Mixes have you introduced and why are they so popular?
A: We now have 9 Imperial Orchid Mixes organized by genera and plant type like our original Classic Orchid Mixes. While our original Classic Orchid Mixes are terrific mixes, we have been searching for orchid mediums that are really extraordinary and as we have found them and added them to our offerings we realized that they really provided an opportunity to stand on their own and not be simply and easily just combined with other existing orchid mediums like coconut husk, fir barks or Chilean sphagnum. We thought that making mixes with none of these traditional orchid media would be a great alternative for a variety of reasons. Some people and plants need more choices. Some don't like the dust of fir. Some don't like coconut husk. Some prefer AAA New Zealand Sphagnum to the less costly and less fluffy Premium Chilean. Based on our order flow since introducing the Imperial Orchid Mixes we know our customers have agreed with our thoughts. We use all of our mixes ourselves and each has its place in our view.
Q: What goes into the Imperial Orchid Mixes?
A: Each Imperial Orchid Mix is unique, and various ones contain AAA New Zealand Sphagnum, Imported Cork Chips from Portugal, Monterey Pine Bark from New Zealand, and other medias that round out the mix, like sponge rock, or rice hulls, or tree fern etc. Each ingredient is spelled out completely so our customers know precisely what they are buying, just like with our Classic Orchid Mixes - no "secret" ingredients. These are very special mixes, and are perhaps as much defined by what doesn't go into them as what does. For example, we made a decision to not have any Coconut products in the Imperial Orchid Mixes. Not because they are bad, but because we want to have a clear alternative. Kind of like a vegetarian menu is an alternative in a restaurant. No fir bark exists in the Imperial Orchid Mixes. The bark we use for these exclusive blends is Monterey. The long fibered Sphagnum we use is AAA New Zealand. The only place you will find cork in our mixes is in the Imperial Line unless you design your own in our Select-A-Blend section.
Q: What is so special about cork?
A: Many orchids love to grow on cork plaques, and in cork tubes which we think look great too. The reason these orchids love cork is because it doesn't get sopping wet, resists mold, and has craggy surfaces for roots to burrow into. Cork chips, chunks and nuggets make a marvelous addition to mixes because they impart these same qualities and also keep the mix open and airy. They look fantastic in the mix too, and the top of the mix seems to stay fresh and clean looking for longer stretches of time.
Q: Why are there multi-purpose Imperial Orchid Mixes?
A: In each of our Mix lines (Classic Orchid Mix and Imperial Orchid Mix) we wanted to create a mix that is based as much on genera as on root type. With so many different species of orchids, it would be a great challenge to have a mix for each, so we wanted to give our customers the ability to match a mix up with a specific plant based on characteristics if not by genera/name. We created two of these, one based on AAA New Zealand Sphagnum, and the other based on Monterey Pine Bark. There are also two multi-purpose mixes in the Classic Ochid Mix line, the Cattleya and the Fir Blends. All of that said we now make 25 unique exclusive mixes for our customers.
