So I can seem to find anything to make my own bonsai mix in Newcastle. All the nurseries and landscape places look at me funny when I ask if they have crushed clay/terracotta or anything other than ordinary garden stuff..

Any ideas?

Their mix looked like it had alot of organic content, it should be pretty good yeah?
