Orchiata Precision Bark 35L (3–6mm)

Orchiata Precision Bark is a natural orchid growing medium made from sustainably harvested New Zealand Pinus radiata bark. The fine 3–6mm bark grade is suitable for seedlings, young orchids and orchid varieties that benefit from increased moisture retention while maintaining good airflow around the roots.

Carefully aged and graded, the bark develops beneficial micro-organisms while unwanted pathogens are eliminated during processing. Its consistent particle size, durable structure and balanced pH make it suitable for long-term orchid growing and repotting.
