Ivy May

  • How is Ivy May earth friendly?

    At Ivy May, we use sustainable and locally sourced ingredients such as upcycled redwood bark to create our premium houseplant potting mixture. This lowers our carbon footprint and promotes eco-conscious practices. By relying on organic materials that naturally improve plant health, we reduce the need for chemical fertilizers while supporting sustainable gardening.
  • What plants can I use Ivy May potting soil with?

    Our soil is amazing for all houseplants, cacti, and succulents. Common houseplants that thrive in Ivy May’s indoor potting medium include Monsteras, Spider Plants, Pothos, Snake Plants, Peace Lilies, ZZ Plants, Aloe Vera, and Orchids. Because it’s formulated as a high-quality houseplant potting mixture, it provides the perfect balance of drainage, aeration, and nutrients for long-term plant health.
  • Why is our potting soil infused with peppermint essential oil?

    Our signature peppermint essential oil from Ivy May provides a long-lasting, natural irritant to pests, giving your plant a healthier chance of survival. And of course, it smells fantastic! This special touch makes our indoor potting medium not only nourishing but also protective, helping your houseplants thrive without the need for harsh chemical repellents.
