Premium Terrarium Plant Potting Soil Mix


Give your terrarium plants a potting mix made specifically for their growing needs! Whether you're creating a new terrarium, repotting established plants, or replacing old, compacted growing media, Soil Sunrise Terrarium Potting Soil Mix combines quality ingredients in a convenient, ready-to-use blend for container-grown terrarium plants.

Specially formulated for terrarium environments, this blend combines moisture-retaining coco coir with pumice and horticultural charcoal to support drainage, aeration, and a healthy root environment. The porous structure of pumice and charcoal helps create air space throughout the mix, creating a ready-to-use terrarium potting mix straight from the bag.


Key Benefits:

  • Plant-Specific Formula: Specifically formulated for plants grown in terrariums and other enclosed or decorative containers.
  • Balanced Drainage & Moisture: Coco coir helps retain useful moisture, while pumice and horticultural charcoal help create air space and support drainage throughout the mix.
  • Pre-Blended & Ready to Use: Use this terrarium potting soil straight from the bag with no need to purchase, measure, or mix several separate soil components.
  • Quality Ingredients: Contains horticultural charcoal, coco coir, and pumice.


How Much Terrarium Potting Soil Do I Need?

Choose the bag size that best fits your terrarium planting or repotting project. The actual amount needed will vary depending on container size, root-ball size, and how much existing media is removed.

2 qt: Small terrariums, tabletop displays, or several miniature planting projects.
4 qt: Medium to large terrariums or multiple smaller terrarium projects.

 

Why This Terrarium Potting Soil Blend Works:

Coco Coir: Help retain useful moisture while contributing organic material and lightweight structure to the growing medium.
Horticultural Charcoal: Adds porous material that contributes to the mix's overall structure and aeration.
Pumice: Adds durable, porous particles that help create air space and support drainage.


Why Choose Soil Sunrise Terrarium Potting Soil?

Soil Sunrise Terrarium Potting Soil Mix takes the guesswork out of choosing and preparing the right growing medium for your terrarium plants. This plant-specific, ready-to-use blend combines quality ingredients to support drainage, aeration, and moisture retention—without the need to purchase and mix multiple soil components yourself. 

Ideal for Fittonia, Pilea, Peperomia, small ferns, and other terrarium-friendly plants, whether you're creating a new display, repotting established plants, or replacing old and compacted growing media.

100% All-Natural Blend
Made in the USA

2. Fluff the soil:
Gently mix coco coir, pumice, and charcoal to ensure even distribution.

3. Plant your greenery:
Arrange ferns, mosses, or violets at the desired depth, firming soil lightly around roots.

4. Moisten gently:
Mist or lightly water until the mix is evenly damp but not soggy.

5. Maintain humidity:
Close or cover as appropriate and monitor moisture—mist when top layer feels dry.

I recently used this terrarium potting soil mix to create tiny snail terrariums, and it worked out perfectly! The soil is of excellent quality, providing the right environment for the snails and plants. I’d definitely recommend it for anyone looking to set up a terrarium!

When I received this the first thing I noticed was that the bag was very lightweight. When I opened it I thought it was more like peat moss than soil. It was very dry so I added it to the soil that was already in the terrarium and mixed it in. I don’t think it would work by itself.

Nicely packaged and arrived safely in its bag. It appears to be quality soil for my terrarium and looks to have all the ingredients stated. Plenty of soil for several projects. I just planted, so can't tell how well the plants like it, but the color and weight of the soil seem good.

Excellent, fluffy tree fern fiber. Perfect for the soil mix I was creating. It was good quality. There were no foreign bits in it. I think the amount you received was a good value. I would buy it again because I don't have call for large amounts of it.

I've purchased this twice in 2 different sizes. The first was when I was brand new to terrariums and didn't really know what I was doing. I did my first few setups using this soil and never had a problem. No deaths or rotting and most importantly no fruit gnats (Which I've encountered in other brands). Then I started mixing my substrates from other materials to meet the needs of my plants more specifically. But, I bought the 8 qt. bag of this because I knew it would work for nearly any terrarium setup (even carnivorous plants) based on the 3 main ingredients. I've also purchased other items from Soil Sunrise and they've been pretty high quality materials.

Good soil. A bit pricy, but, if you need it, I guess it's worth the cost.
