Why Repotting Matters
One of the easiest ways to revive a struggling carnivorous plant is often the simplest — a cleanup, fresh soil and a little expert TLC. Old, compacted soil can suffocate roots, trap minerals and slow growth. A quick refresh in the right PROmix™ soil instantly improves drainage, restores balance, and helps your plant bounce back.
Fresh soil gives your plant a second life 🌱 Even if it hasn’t outgrown its pot, replacing old soil removes mineral buildup and corrects hidden root or moisture issues. We recommend:
- Venus Flytraps, Sundews, Trumpet Pitchers: Repot yearly for healthy roots and bigger traps
- Nepenthes, Heliamphora, Cobra Lilies: Every 2–3 years to maintain airflow and steady moisture
- Plants from garden centres or nurseries: Often grown in generic soil — repot into the correct PROmix™ blend for long-term success
