I need to repot my 2 inch polkadot plant and I’m not sure what to use. It looks like it’s just in potting soil right now. What do you recommend? 🧐

Ohh! Prepare for information dump! I use a mix of my own creation, it includes roughly 1 part perlite, 3 parts potting soil, 2 parts orchid bark. Or you could just buy potting mix🤣 it works great! Also make sure that pot has a drainage hole, cute pot though! Good luck 🍀

Many thanks! Your soil mix sounds great. And that cute little pot does have a little hole in the bottom of it. I agree, it sure is cute.😉
