Hi Wendy.

I bought it at Walmart because Alaflor was getting hard to find. No, I didn.t wash it since I used it straight and the pieces were on the large size. Besides as soon as I watered it the dust care right out of the pot.

How are you doing finding Rexius Bark? Its getting scarce around here. I hope they get the mill back up and running again.

Amazing how they grow in anything that has air pockets, free draining & a container to give them security.
Hmmm, lave rock eh? I have been looking for something to mix & cut down on bark.
Did you wash or rinse the lava rock?
Cheers Wendy

I had a good time with this one. In late 06 I busted up a overgrown 10 in pot and divided it into 3 8in pot and anothet 10 in for the big piece. I used plain garden lava rock from Home Depoe. I watered them heavy since Jan. and bingo, Flowers. They really took to the lava.
