This is a general slow release fertilizer that is coated with plastic resin or sulfur based polymers. This fertilizer slowly breaks down from heat, sunlight and/or water over a period of 2 – 3 months. This fertilizer is specifically designed to only feed when the temps are above 70 degrees. This prevents the fertilizer from releasing too early as well as keep it from feeding too late in the season. Over application of quick releasing fertilizers can result in the burning of plants. Using slow release fertilizers eliminates the risk of fertilizer burn and it stays in the soil longer. Always fertilize according to the directions on the container. This is the same fertilizer that we use here at the nursery. This fertilizer can be safely used on Japanese maples, shrubs, ground covers, hydrangeas, succulents, trees, and many other plants in your garden or landscape.

In soil: 1/4 – 1/2 cups per cubic foot.
