🌱 Orchid Nerd Paphiopedilum Orchid Potting Mix – 2 Cubic Foot Box

Designed specifically for Paphiopedilum orchids, this 2 cubic foot box of Orchid Nerd Paphiopedilum Mix offers the same award-winning formula trusted by Waldor Orchids—now in a larger volume for collectors, greenhouses, or serious growers.

It’s a custom blend, originally developed by George A. Off, and tailored to support the unique needs of moisture-loving slipper orchids.

Also available in a 1 Cubic Foot Box for smaller collections or beginners.

🌿 Premium Ingredients Include:

• Medium and fine fir bark – provides structure and gentle moisture retention, ideal for the sensitive roots of Paphiopedilums

• Charcoal – neutralizes acidity and absorbs impurities to keep the mix fresh over time

• Sponge rock – increases airflow and keeps the mix loose to prevent compaction

• Coconut husk – holds moisture longer and adds organic matter to support healthy root growth

• Proprietary ingredients – tailored by Waldor Orchids to support slipper orchids with enhanced moisture control and nutrient flow

This mix is perfectly balanced for long-term orchid health, especially suited for Paphiopedilum roots which require consistent hydration with excellent drainage.

✅ Why Choose the 2 Cu. Ft. Size?

• Ideal for re-potting large collections or commercial setups

• Same trusted formula as the 1 cu. ft. version

• Excellent value for frequent growers

📦 Size: 2 Cubic Feet – packed for larger orchid collections or ongoing use

💡 Tips for Best Results

Re-pot orchids every 12–18 months or when potting mix starts to break down. Always re-pot after blooming to reduce stress on the plant.
