Bone Meal is great for bulbs, roses, root vegetables and for establishing new gardens. It has a high amount of Phosphorus (P) which is an important plant nutrient credited with supporting root development so that your plant will be more able to take care of itself.
Use Bone Meal when planting to ensure strong root growth. Mix with backfill dirt and sprinkle around the planting hole. Apply to established plants at the drip line and lightly work into soil surface.
Since Bone Meal is a slow-release fertilizer, it is best to work it into a new garden area a few weeks before planting. Bone Meal has a high Calcium content and is not recommended for use around acid loving plants like Rhododendrons, Azalea, Camellia, Blueberry or Potato.
Bone Meal is very long lasting and slow acting, lasting in soil for a year or longer.
