Wonderful mix
I'm a beginner Gardner. My first batch of dahlias I ruined. Tried again and used this as directed. I already have some growth in a week. Good stuff and it'll last me a while! Packaging is so careful, the customer service is so good. I definitely will order from here every year! Thank you!

- Q
When do I apply the recommended 1x/year fertilizer, when planting in the fall or in the spring? Also, how much fertilizer is applied and in what fashion-e.g. broadcast on the soil in the planting holes, etc.
- Asked by Mark
- Verified Reply - AngelaApply 1 lb. per 20 sq. ft. at time of planting by broadcasting on the soil. When planting bulbs individually, use 1 Tbsp. per bulb (should feed approx. 96 bulbs) and mix thoroughly with soil around planting hole before placing bulb in. For best response, apply again at the same rate as early as possible in spring, when spring-flowering bulbs emerge. Fertilize tulips no later than 4 to 6 weeks before bloom. For summer-flowering bulbs, apply again when flower buds form. Do not fertilize any bulbs after flowers open, as late fertilization encourages bulb rot. To feed already planted bulbs, sprinkle Van Bourgondien 100% Natural Bulb Food over the soil surface and mix with soil as thoroughly as possible.Was this answer helpful to you
