Home-made and store-bought composts are the types of compost that can be used on indoor plants. Home-made compost tends to be the vermicultural product of worm bins whereas store-bought compost tends to be a mix labeled as an indoor peat- or soil-based plant mix. It will be quite common to find the above-mentioned home-made and store-bought compost-, peat- and soil-based mixes for:

  • bulbed plants, such as amaryllis;
  • cacti and succulents;
  • fine, hairy-rooted plants, such as African violets, begonias and Christmas cacti;
  • forest plants, such as bromeliads and ferns;
  • heavy-leafed plants;
  • jungle and tropical plants;
  • large-leafed palms;
  • large-sized plants;
  • strong climbers.
