An acidophilic potting soil is formulated specifically for plants that prefer an acidic soil pH. These plants include rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias, blue hydrangeas, callunas, and many others. This Potting Soil features:
Acid PH: These potting soils are formulated to have a pH between 4.5 and 6.5, which is ideal for most acidophilic plants.
Organic Matter: They are rich in organic matter such as sphagnum peat, which has a naturally low pH and can help acidify the soil.
Drainage: Acidophilic plants often prefer good drainage, so potting soil contains sand to improve soil structure and prevent waterlogging.
