Perlite is ideal for propagation. Various grades of perlite are available that can be used solely or with peat moss, sand or other media. The lightweight properties ensure that when cuttings and seedlings are ready for removal, you can lift them safely and efficiently from the bed without large clumps clinging to and damaging the roots. Perlite also makes sound economic sense because it withstands repeated usage, and you can replant in the same bed.
