Red Lava Rock from Mosser Lee
Lava rock is also very popular for amending soil when it comes to cacti, succulents, and other plants that are accustomed to more rocky, desert-like environments. It is extremely permeable and holds on to very little water.
To Improve Drainage:
Plant roots can breathe properly only in well-drained soil. To prevent over-watering, layer 1-2 inches of lava rock on the bottom of your pot.
To Create Humidity:
Most plants benefit from a humid environment, and these beautiful stones can help welcome humidity to your plant.
- Layer 1-2 inches of lava rock in a saucer, dish, or any other shallow-type container. Place planter on the rocks.
- Add water to lava rock to a level slightly below the plant container, Re-water as needed to maintain proper level.
- Don't forget to water your plants as well!
To Decorate:
Beautify and enhance your house plants by adding a top layer to your planters. The lava rock will add soil moisture retention.
- Contains 1.5 dry quarts of red lava rock
"Great customer service. Walked in not knowing anything and walked out with a plant tailored plant already potted and instructions on how to keep it healthy. Becky at the register was instrumental in getting me the proper assistance and her customer service was fantastic. I will be back for more plants!"

"Amazing places to get all sorts of exotic plants and supplies. Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. They even repot plants there if you buy the pot from them. 10/10, I highly recommend this place."

"Bath Garden Center has a huge selection of plants. I always buy more than I planned on buying. I'd like to say I hate them for it... But I actually love their selections! And the staff are friendly and helpful. Always a great place to go! 😀"
