SuperFly Bonsai's Professional Deciduous Bonsai Mix - Premium Blend This mix is a variant of the most commonly used and accepted mix by bonsai professionals around the world. Here in the United States it is known as "Boons Mix" after Boon Manakitivipart. This mix has been modified to meet the needs of Deciduous Bonsai Trees such as Maple, Elm, Oak and others.
Is It Dirt? No. Bonsai trees do not like "dirt" and will in most cases die if left in dirt over long periods of time. This is substrate.
What Is In It? The primary components are Akadama, Pumice and Black Lava. We also added a bit of Horticultural Charcoal and Haydite. These components have been found over time to provide the best drainage, water retention, nutrient retention and air circulation possible to promote healthy bonsai.
- 1/2 Japanese Hard Akadama - is a clay like component that is excellent at retaining water and it breaks down allowing roots to grow in its place.
- 1/4 Japanese Hyuga Pumice - is a volcanic byproduct that is excellent at retaining water and nutrients.
- 1/4 USA Black Lava Rock - is also a volcanic byproduct that is excellent at retaining moisture. Black lava also adds structure to the soil.
- Horticultural Charcoal -This was added to harbor beneficial bacteria and add humic acid in the soil.
- Haydite - (expanded shale) has the ability to absorb excess water then release it slowly back to the roots.
Particle Size This is very important in a soil mix. This blend is sized from 1/16" to about 1/4" in size. This allows air to the roots while maintaining moisture needed by deciduous trees.
How Do I Use It? This is "real" bonsai soil. Be sure your bonsai pot has holes in the bottom covered by bonsai mesh.
Each micro climate may require different amounts of water. On hot days you may need to water two times while around freezing you may need to water every few weeks. Push your finger 1" into the soil and feel for moisture. If it is dry, it is time to water.
2.5 Qt = @ 12 Cups
Pre Mixed & Ready To Use - Sifted Prior To Bagging - 1/2 Hard Japanese Akadama - 1/4 Japanese Pumice - 1/4 USA Sourced Black Lava - A Bit of Horticultural Charcoal and Haydite
Promotes Excellent Drainage & Water Retention - Specifically formulated for Deciduous Trees Include Maple, Elm, Beech, Hornbeam, Oak and Many More
Non-Organic Mix - This mix is "real" bonsai soil and is made up of primarily non-organic components (no dirt, bark, mulch, etc.). This is really substrate. This has been found to provide optimal drainage, water retention, nutrient uptake and air to the roots (which they love).
Easy Zip Resealable Bag (1.25 and 2.5 Quart Bags) - Simply tear off the top then reseal the easy to close resealable bag over and over until you are ready to re-order soil.

Bonsai Deciduous soil mix
Thank you for the fast delivery I really appreciate it.
I have several deciduous trees red maples, tridents ,ficus and just a few others that I potted them with this soil.
I had been using another company for my potting needs but I just didn’t quite like the material that they used. also shipping was no were near as fast as yours so I thank you for that and the quality of your product is spot on.
Which is best soil for a Chinese Elm, Boon mix or deciduous professional mix?
I would go with the deciduous mix for a chinese elm.
does this work for a trident maple?
This soil will be great for a trident.
Hello when would I put bonsai seedlings into bonsai soil ?
When you are happy with the size of the trunk and are ready to plant into a bonsai pot. The seedling should have several sets of leaves when you do this.
What is the weight of the bag?
The weight of the bag is +/- 21 pounds. Since it is measured by volume, the weight may vary.
