Orchid Bark | 100% Pure New Zealand Pinus Radiata | Power 3/8' to 1/2" Organic Potting Bark for Aeration and Longevity

This is high quality orchiata bark for sure. It doesn’t break down quickly which is a good sign. I will say often don’t order this small of a size but it works just fine in my mixes. I grow mostly outdoor and mostly cattleya and dendrobium. What I like too is that this bark comes very dry where as others I get from the big box will often be moist. I think that’s a big factor in how long it takes for this to decay.All in all it’s good bark but I just use it sparingly because it’s about twice the price of the other barks I use. I save this for my favorite plants or the ones that tend to be fussy when repotted so I can lessen the frequency.

I have tried so many orchid barks. This is the best by far. It is not dusty and doesn't smell like chemicals . It is the right size and perfect for various species of orchids . Water drains perfectly and the product airates wonderfully.

Arrived musty odor, dusty with mold. Returned it. Wouldn’t use with valuable orchids.

I really like this bark for my orchids and for adding to potting soil. It’s high quality and very uniform in size. Works very well.

The best bark for growing orchids. Larger bags at a better price is available at other stores.

Overall quality is pretty good - size distribution is good and min dust. Price point is high for the amount received.

wouldn’t use anything else to repot my orchids

The plastic packaging arrived dusty like if it was stored wet then dried before shipping. I debated whether to open or not. Well, this is arguably a mix of various bark pieces with only a few actually large. A note to the manufacturer, if you don’t calibrate your bark maybe don’t advertise it as such. And it’s all covered in grey dust with a disgusting musty smell. The worst orchiata I’ve ever received
