The secret

This volcanic ash is present in two forms in our Gardener's Soap: one you can see and the other you can't

Thrives in moderate humidity but adapts well to typical indoor conditions

5 cm of soil feels dry

tolerates a range of humidity levels but will be lushest looking in a humid room like a bathroom or kitchen
