Recycled crushed, washed and dried whelk shells mulch. Sustainable alternative to synthetic growing media.

We've taken our time to crush and riddle these shells resulting in smaller pieces which will sit more neatly and uniformly as a top dressing - great for succulents.

Why choose crushed whelk shells for your plants?

• Decorative top dressing for succulents, cacti and alpine plants
• Improves drainage around plant roots and prevents waterlogging
• Natural mineral content supports healthy plant growth
• Uniform fine crush creates a neat, professional appearance in pots and containers
• Ideal for miniature gardens, fairy gardens and bonsai displays
• Adds coastal charm to indoor and outdoor plant arrangements

Key details:

• This bag contains a finer crush of shells than our other bags, ideal for top dressing miniature plants and pots.
• This bag contains approximately 1 Kg of shells.
• This is a natural product from the sea. We do our best to remove any foreign material. Paper bag and tie handles - 100% recyclable.

The artwork on the front of the bag is by watercolour artist Tanya Glama. We asked Tanya to share a bit about herself - "I really love travel, and in every new city I visit botanical gardens. It inspires me. On one these trips I discovered succulents. I fell so in love with succulents that I started to collect them, and then I began to paint them." 

Perfect for gardeners seeking eco-friendly plant care solutions and decorative shell mulch for container gardening.
