09423 Flower & Rose Granular Fertilizer with Biozome, 4 pound bag

Original review July, 2021: I wasn't sure what to expect but got this based on the reviews here. I came home with greatly marked down clearance rose bushes this year that were in really sad shape. The price was so low, in fact, that even if only 1 out of the 5 I got survived, I'd still be ahead. So that should give you an idea of how sad they were, lol. I planted them in their spots in the garden with the fertilizer and checked on them periodically. Within 2 days one was getting a bud. Ok,I thought, maybe that one will make it after all. But each time I checked on them, another one was doing better than it had been. Currently, it's been about a month since I brought those bushes home and they are all alive and blooming and I've even seen some new growth. Then I put some of the fertilizer on my miniature roses that were struggling in a large deck container... 3 out of 4 of the colors are now in full bloom! Waiting to see if that last color will come back. So out of 5 regular sized and 4 miniature roses, only one doesn't have blooms, and none of them look like they are struggling anymore. I'm really happy with this stuff and would definitely recommend based on my experience with it. I'm not sure what other flowers like this stuff but I'm currently experimenting in my garden to see. Everything I put it on so far has been good. I even got brand new bleeding hearts after I thought the bush was done for the season. Update August, 2021: All my roses bloomed beautifully, even that last one I was waiting for - look below for a list of bushes I currently have. A month after my last review of this product and I've got every bush with blooms and the foliage is perfect. I'm so happy with this stuff and I'm a lifetime customer as long as they don't mess with the formula. Roses I have in the garden right now: Miniature (potted): red, pink, white, and yellow Bushes, not in pots: Double Knockout - red Miniature Double Knockout (2) - red Drift - apricot As of this writing, every bush I got so far have been clearance and in sad states (some even from Walmart!). I am so happy with how beautifully they have recovered and are rewarding me with beautiful blooms! One more update, mid August, 2021: Definitely going to stick with this product from now on! Not only did it do my roses so good but also really helped other flowers in my garden really pop! I did a general fertilizing of my flower garden and everything in there just got so happy. Flowers that seemed to really like this stuff were: calendula, zinnia, impatiens, begonia, sunflowers... In another bed there were: miniature roses, balloon flowers... even my blanket flowers came back after I thought they were done for the season. Come to think of it, my coleus grew like mad right after applying this stuff. I hadn't put it together before writing this review. I was just out there thinking how huge they got all of a sudden! I guess we'll see how the perennials like it next year when their bloom time comes. This will be part of my amendment of the soil plan next spring before I plant new stuff. I'm really looking forward to a beautiful garden next year!

Easy to use. I used it on all my perennials especially the hybrid tea roses. Once in early June and again in mid July. Even considering the unusual amounts of rain this summer, the blooms on all the flowers, lilies, peonies and roses have been exceptional.

This stuff is great, everything started growing so well after I fed my plants with this fertilizer! Very easy to use. I will be using this from now on!

All of my roses love this fertilizer and are doing beautifully. Lots of vigorous new growth.

I wish this came in a larger bag, it's granules that are sprinkled around the rose bush. It seems to do the job.
