keto-tsuichi

Japanese black peat and clay, primarily used for rock plantings (Ishizuki), landscapes, and kokedama. Thanks to its highly sticky and malleable substance, it retains moisture and acts as a sturdy ‘retaining wall’ on flat pots or stones and protect the roots from drying out.

Synonyms:
Black peat clay, keto
