## Description

## Features

- Visual Indicator: Akadama soil changes color (it darkens) when wet, indicating when to water your plant. Keep an eye that you don’t overwater them or don’t leave them under-watering, which retain their form when dry and absorb water when wet.
- Natural Material: This Bonsai Akadama (1/8 inch - 1/4 inch) is fired clay from 100% natural volcanic soil, eco-friendly, no additional fillers, no paint, no dyes, no chemicals, and provides the tree with moisture while preventing compaction.
- How to Use: Although akadama is one of the most commonly used mediums for bonsai soil, it’s rarely used on its own. Combining particles with different structural and water-retention properties allows for the creation of nearly limitless bonsai mixes.
- Fast Drainage: Akadama is highly porous in nature, and favors faster drainage. It also helps in spreading nutrients to your bonsai tree roots. It ticks off all the necessary requirements succulents needs for proper growth.
- Satisfaction Guaranteed: This professional-grade akadama is well packed in a reusable sealing bag, and easy to open and close with every use. Our friendly customer service is ready for you.
