Planting bulbs in the fall is an investment in the future. You know your hard work will be rewarded in spring, when tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths burst into bloom. Protect that investment with our specially formulated Bulb Food. Its designed to support gorgeous flowers and a long blooming season. Our Bulb Food is pH-balanced with premium organic ingredients like bone meal, bat guano, kelp meal, feather meal and humic acid, a naturally occurring organic material that is formed when organic matter decomposes. Humic acid helps with seed germination and may increase the uptake of important micronutrients. Best of all, FoxFarm adds 20 species of beneficial microbes to help convert fertilizers into vital plant food and fight off disease. Our Bulb Food formula is granulated and easy to use, and it provides gentle, slow-release feedings all season long. All of our Happy Frog organic fertilizers are specially formulated to replenish the soil, lift the human spirit, and beautify the Earth, naturally. Bring your plants to life! Garden tip: Use 1-2 tablespoons of fertilizer with every bulb when you plant. When bulbs begin to put up young shoots in spring, scratch 1-2 tablespoons in the soil around each bulb, and repeat again after the blooming season is over. In container plantings, use Ocean Forest Potting Soil and supplement with 1-2 tablespoons for every bulb in the container.
