Features
Dipladenia is the professional Arber substrate developed specifically to prevent root waterlogging that damages this sensitive plant. The medium-coarse structure — built from Baltic blonde peat in granulometries 7–20 mm and 20–40 mm, combined with brown peat 0–20 mm — maintains consistent air porosity and reliable drainage. The addition of perlite further lightens the mix and supports adequate gas exchange throughout the entire growing season.
The slightly acidic pH (5.5–6.5) suits dipladenia grown in cold greenhouses and outdoors during the flowering phase. The PG Mix starter fertiliser supports the re-establishment phase; the wetting agent helps the first re-hydration of the root zone after repotting. Dipladenia is suitable for pots from Ø 14 cm and above, where the coarse structure delivers its full drainage advantage.
Selected peat from the Baltic countries: consistently from the same extraction fields, season after season, to ensure quality continuity from batch to batch.
