Bed preparation for succulent beds!?
I would like to get input from anyone that has installed a succulent bed as far as soil mix. I am planning on using landscaple mix (mushroom compost, sand, nitrolized pine fines, perlite and trace elements), sand, and crushed oyster shells, and pea gravel. I will be elevating the beds slightly to aid in drainage, but I was wondering how many parts of each should I mix it? I figure the landscape mix will be like one part to 3 parts sand and one part oyster shells, but I am not sure. I will be using slightly larger rock for mulch. Any input would be greatly appreciated...
Randy
