It is a blend of essential nutrients combined with beneficial biological organisms like mycorrhizal fungi and soil bacteria.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To apply, clear any mulch from around the base of your rose bush to expose the soil surface. Scatter the recommended amount of granules evenly around the base, extending to the edge of the plant's canopy. Gently incorporate the feed into the top 2-3 inches of soil using a hand cultivator.

Compatibility: This product is safe for use with all outdoor rose varieties, including hybrid teas, floribundas, and shrub roses.

Care: Store the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the viability of the beneficial fungi and bacteria. Ensure the soil remains adequately moist after application, as the beneficial organisms require moisture to establish and thrive in the soil environment.
