What Is Perlite?
Perlite (پرلائٹ in Urdu) is a natural volcanic glass that is super-heated to 900°C, causing it to expand up to 20 times its original size into lightweight, porous white granules. These granules hold air and water perfectly while preventing soil compaction.
ZarkhaizBee Perlite Plus+ is horticultural grade (2–5 mm), dust-extracted, sterile, and pH-neutral — far superior to construction-grade perlite. It is inert, contains no nutrients or pathogens, and lasts forever in soil.
Why Perlite Is So Popular for Plants in Pakistan?

Provides instant drainage — saves plants from root rot
Lightens heavy pots for balcony & rooftop gardening
Perfect aeration for indoor plants in Karachi & Lahore humidity
Essential additive for succulent & adenium mixes
