What can be used to fill container plants?

i will be planting several flowers in large flower pots; what can be used as a filler in the bottom, as the plants won't need so much soil.

What can be used to fill container plants?
Bust up an old styrafoam cooler - really light as opposed to rocks. Companies always trying to give away those darn packing chips that fly everywhere
Reply:Rocks are good natural rocks not bricks or crushed concrete. I always put a little gravel in mine to help with drainage.
Reply:I fill mine up about 1/2 way with packing peanuts....those styrofoam things..............
Reply:When I transplanted my plants to extra large pots,I took the pot they were in and turned it upside down in the bottom of the pot.Then sprinkle soil around the sides to fill in the pot.Put the plant in and add enough to hold it....
