Westland Citrus Potting Mix 10L

I used this when repotting a fairly large fig tree (around 1.6–2m tall) into a bigger pot, and it has worked really well.The compost is designed for citrus plants but is also suitable for other fruiting plants. It has a well-balanced mix (typically including loam, sand/grit and organic matter), which provides good drainage while still retaining enough nutrients. This is important as fruit trees don’t like to sit in overly wet soil.After repotting, the tree did show some initial stress (a few leaves dropped), which is normal, but after a few weeks it settled well and is now growing properly again.I also like that it doesn’t require excessive watering — it drains well and avoids the soil becoming too heavy or waterlogged.Overall, a good quality compost that supports healthy growth, especially for fruiting plants.

Used this new 'citrus flavour in a pot (although it's actually in a plastic bag) rather than lemons in my lemon drizzle cake and it turned out very different to usual. Whilst the texture was much firmer than usual I (my wife took one look - didn't even try it and hasn't spoken to me since) struggled to even catch a taste of citrus. I've gone back to using fresh lemons again but, rather interestingly, I accidently dropped a few lemon pips into the citrus potting mix and they've already germinated.

I bought this Westland mix specifically to repot a young avocado plant that I’ve been propagating from seed.If you grow Avocado or Citrus, you know how sensitive their roots are to sitting in soggy water, so getting the drainage right is everything.The soil texture is excellent. It’s nice and airy, and you can actually see the bits of granulated clay mixed through it.This is a massive plus because it keeps the soil loose and stops it from compacting down into a solid brick when you water it.I gave my plant its first light watering after potting, and the drainage was exactly what I wanted to see - moisture retention without water logging.My avocado hasn’t shown a single sign of transplant shock, and the leaves are looking perky and healthy.It’s a premium mix, but for fussier plants, it’s absolutely worth it.Highly recommend!

Excellent quality for transferring my avocado grown from pit. Allows excellent drainage and avoids root damage by cloggy soil.

Lovely light potting mix

If you are growing lemon tree, lime tree and orange tree plus mango tree.You need this compost for the above, my tree are loving this compost and are growing very fast.Please don't use regular multi compost.

Lemon plants 🪴 doing well, not sure how good all these special soils really are, but I've got lots lemons and loads more flowers,So I'll say it was worth buying 3 bags, costly, but so were plants, and they look great.

A bit smaller than I expected but a very good quality product.Just perfect for a young citrus tree that I am trying to grow
