Small fir bark chips for orchid mixes and chunky DIY blends.

Our Small Fir Bark Chips are 100% fir bark in a small chip size that's easy to blend. Bark gives potting mix the chunky, airy structure that orchids, hoyas and aroids grow in naturally, and it holds a little moisture between waterings. It's the same fir bark we use in our own soil mixes. Use it as the base of an orchid mix or blend it with perlite, pumice and coco.

Best for

• Orchid mixes for Phalaenopsis, Cattleya, Oncidium and Dendrobium
• DIY aroid and hoya mixes
• Smaller pots and young plants that need a finer chunky texture
• Top-dressing houseplant pots

Why plant parents love it

• 100% fir bark. One natural ingredient, nothing added.
• Airy structure. Opens up dense mixes so water drains and roots breathe.
• Easy to blend. The small chip size mixes evenly with perlite, pumice and coco.
• Breaks down slowly. Like all bark it softens over time, so refresh your mix every year or two.

Mix it with

Pair it with Chunky Perlite for a quick DIY orchid or hoya mix, or skip the mixing and grab our ready-made Super Chunky Orchid Mix.
