    It is what it looks like, pine bark without much dust. We will see how the orchids do after repotting. So far so good!

    Very good mattress topper, I would definitely buy it again. It is a bit expensive considering the volume of the packaging.

    Apart from the fact that the description states a total product percentage of 115%, so I don't know which is the printing error, the bark or the peat (!!!), the product is mostly peat and therefore unsuitable for phalaenopsis orchids, although it is supposedly sold as good for them. I will have to pick out the bark pieces by hand.

    edit: I rinsed the peat several times in a basin in the same way we wash rice, and used it that way. I will come back with an edit if the orchids are unhappy but it seems okay for now.

    Very expensive for the quantity that the bag has. There are cheaper ones on the market from other companies
