Fertilizer & Plant Care

All plants need three key ingredients to grow and to thrive: light, water and nutrients. Light and water are pretty easy to provide and the plant won’t survive without them. However, many of us neglect our flower’s need for nutrition.

The three main essential ingredients that our plants need are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (potash). There is usually some of each in the soil so our plants will survive. But will they thrive? This is why plant fertilizer is so important. By providing your plants with the nutrition they need, you will be surprised at the difference in the quality of your plants. The plants will be able to grow to their potential size with strong, sturdy stems. The leaves will be full size with a rich green color. There will be an abundance of blooms.
