definitely do not use MG moisture control. That soil holds water longer and will stay soggy.

I'd recommend making your own mix. Either 5:1:1 or gritty.

Have a look in the container gardening section of this forum.

Thanks Dave! My margenata plant died so I'm wanting to replace it.

I was thinking of using half potting soil, and perlite, and vermiculite.. sound good??

If you aren't into making one of the other mixes, go with equal parts potting soil and perlite. Skip the vermiculite.

Also here is the plant and the container I got it. Home Depot didn't have any smaller containers, so I got the 8" was the smallest they had in stock.
