Aussie GoldŽ Orchid Mix has been formulated by Ivan J. Harrison, Former First Vice President of the San Diego County
Orchid Society for use on his own 1,500+ orchid collection. Ivan was awarded an American Orchid Society (AOS) 90-point Educational
Award in March 2003.
Aussie Gold Orchid Mix is a "NEW HYDROPONIC" Growing Media developed for Orchids but used by all Growers is now available
in Canada.
Aussie Gold comes in four grades. REGULAR Grade can be used for almost all epiphytic orchids, (species and hybrids) and most
plants using other soilless media. FINE Grade for deflasking, for seedlings and for all fine rooted orchids such as Masdevallia, Dracula,
and Oncidiums. It also works just as well on African Violets, epiphylums, miniature roses, plumeria, bonsai, tomatoes, herbs and house
plants. Lady Slipper orchids now have their own (slightly modified mixture), especially paphiopedilums and phragmipediums called PAPH
& PHRAG Grade to accommodate those orchids found growing in or near riverbeds. Lastly, is the LARGE Grade mix which is formulated for
large cattleya and specimen plants or large plants requiring greater drainage capacity.
Aussie GoldŽ Orchid Mix is based on Diatomite, which is now used
extensively by commercial orchid growers worldwide, who have found that orchids planted in Diatomaceous earth grow and bloom faster
than in regular orchid mixes (H&R). Aussie GoldŽ Orchid Mix augments the proven benefits of Diatomaceous earth
by including other inert and orchid-friendly ingredients.
Orchids die for a variety of reasons, most notably root rot - caused by deterioration of the medium and over / underwatering. Aussie GoldŽ
Orchid Mix eliminates these problems. Aussie GoldŽ Orchid Mix is 100% organic and highly absorbant, and IT DOES NOT DETERIORATE OR
BREAK DOWN, AND YOU CANNOT OVERWATER IT. It is also non-toxic, pH neutral and high in silica. Aussie GoldŽ Orchid Mix contains absolutely NO bark!
Orchids and Diatomite
This makes Aussie GoldŽ Orchid Mix more expensive than other mixes, but it will outperform any bark mix on the market.
How much is it worth to keep your orchid healthy? If you paid $100, or even $20, for your orchid, why wouldn't you pay the cost of a
cup of coffee per pot to give it a nurturing environment?
