1/4" - 1/8 Pumice - Bonsai Soil & Succulents- SCREENED
Our 1/4+" pumice is ideal those wanting a clean hand screened pumice for bonsai soil and soil mix's. Particle size is from 1/4 inch to less than 3/16 inch. Our pumice is a natural volcanic product mined in the Southern Cascades Mountains of Oregon. You get only clean pumice... no rocks, roots or other debris.
Pumice is very non uniform in size. Thus all sizes are approximate. The Pumice comes from the mine at 3/8 inch minus.
We then rescreen to remove pumice over ¼ inch. All pumice that falls through our 1/4 inch screen and does not fall through our 1/8 inch screen is considered 1/4 inch pumice even though the size is mostly under 1/4 inch.
All pumice that does not fall through our 1/4 inch screen is considered 3/8- 1/4 inch pumice.
If you are concerned about the size of pumice you will receive and would like to order samples so you will know exactly what you will get, you can do so for the cost of shipping. Then, if you decide to order 6 gallons or more, the freight cost of shipping the samples will be reimbursed. Just leave a message in Special Instructions to Seller at checkout when you make your larger 6 gallon or larger order and we will refund for your sample shipping costs.
*Pumice is an organic material that continuously breaks down. Some fines may occur during the shipping process. Pumice from different parts of the mine is slightly different from other parts of the mine, so there will be a slight variation in size with each order.
Known as the "rock that floats", pumice has many tiny gaps or air pockets.
Our pumice is hand packed and bagged with a reusable tie for easy storage after you have used part of the bag. If your pumice dries before using, moisten it to keep dust from forming. Dust from any rock or potting soil product should not be inhaled and can be irritating for people with sensitive lungs.
