A Little About Pumice . . .
Pumice may seem to be a somewhat expensive planting medium,
however, unlike mosses or soil, it can be used over and over
again.
Kanuma Pumice
This is the pumice that holds the most moisture. It promotes a
high degree of root growth. It is similar in moisture retention to
sphagnum moss. We have found this to be very good for our
Disa orchids.
Akadama Pumice
This is the "middle of the road" pumice. It does not retain as
much moisture as Kanuma, but does retain more than Huga
pumice.
Huga Pumice
Huga pumice holds the least moisture. It is best for plants where
you want very fast drainage and little moisture retention - such as
Goeringii and cymbidium sinense.
