Inspired by the awe-inspiring volcanic region of Garrotxa in Spain, Beck substrate captures the essence of this mesmerizing landscape. Combining various natural elements, our Riverbed blend showcases a harmonious fusion of textured stones, bark, twigs, crushed leaves, and shells, all carefully curated to reflect the unique characteristics of this remarkable region. To create a captivating interplay of light and dark, we have artfully integrated black volcanic sand and gravel, offering a striking contrast that sets the stage for either a moody ambiance or a stunning backdrop to accentuate vibrant green foliage.

In the poetic words of Chilean luminary Pablo Neruda, "We need to sit on the rim of the well of darkness and fish for the fallen light with patience." This sentiment finds embodiment in the design of our Beck substrate, where the artful interplay of light and dark invokes a sense of beauty and visual allure. The diverse textures and materials within the substrate open up endless possibilities for nature enthusiasts and artists to express their boundless creativity and imagination.

The intermingling of textured stones, bark, twigs, and crushed leaves evokes the rugged terrain of Garrotxa, while the subtle shades of shells add an element of grace and refinement. The dark volcanic sand serves as a natural canvas, enhancing the visual impact of the substrate. Whether you seek to cultivate a moody ambiance or seek a striking contrast against vibrant green plants, Beck substrate stands as the perfect choice to bring your vision to life.

Your plants will be wrapped with recyclable Honey Comb wrap - sounds cool because it is :). It interlocks which means we don't need to use tape either, reducing our impact on the environment.

Not only is delivery fast with DPD Express but it's also green as they offset all the carbon their vehicles produce. Guilt free delivery which we're very proud of...

We guarantee you'll be happy with your order. But if you're not, please contact us so we can resolve. We are 100% here to help and will always do our best to resolve any issues - that's a promise.
