Potting Soils
A "Potting Soil" or "Potting Mix" is the medium you should use when growing plants in any kind of a container, inside or outside the house. Trying to grow plants in dirt in a container is an invitation to disaster.

Choosing A Potting Mix
Potting mixes, or soil mixes as they are sometimes called, will fall into a fairly broad price range depending on the size of the bag and the quality of the mix. The cheaper the product, the more likely you will be buying inferior materials for your houseplant or container plant.

Mixes for Houseplants
Are the roots of your Boston fern poking out of the pot's drainage holes? Like children, young plants grow quickly and can actually double in size every six to 12 months.

Just as the plants you place in the garden require different conditions, including soil, potted plants are more apt to thrive if given their optimum growing environment. The following recipes were found at The-Artistic-Garden.com For these recipes, it is preferable that the potting soil contains perlite or vermiculite.

Coleus
The use of colorful foliage is a hot trend in today’s garden design, so Coleus, an old-time Victorian favorite, is all the rage in American gardens. These new kids on the block produce the most vibrant color when placed in full sun. Collectors who lack space to over-winter these beauties can take cuttings that quickly root in water or damp potting soil.
