Bonemeal is a slow release fertiliser produced from sterilised bonemeal. It contains two elements essential for healthy plant growth - phosphate and nitrogen.

 

It is the slow release of nutrients over an extended period of time which makes Bonemeal an ideal fertiliser for a wide variety of crops and plants.

 

Bonemeal:

 

  • Encourages healthy root development
  • Ideal for bulbs, herbaceous plants, shrubs, roses, fruit trees and strawberries
  • Organic

 

The versatility of Bonemeal means it can be used prior to sowing or planting out, used as a top dressing for established roses and border plants in spring, and around fruit trees and bushes in autumn.

 

Although organic, the product may irritate cut or broken skin so always apply with gloves. Wash hands after use.

 

Store in a cool, dry place and keep out of reach of children and pets. If used in an area close to livestock such as cattle, deer, sheep and goats ensure the treated area is secure to prevent access.

Care for your roses when they arrive

Potted roses

 

Keep well watered until planting and then for at least 14 days to make sure they have settled in to your garden.

Bare root roses


Make sure you keep your bare root roses damp and free from the frost until planting. Once in the ground water regularly especially in cold windy conditions, it will seem strange to do so but it is important to keep the stems hydrated.

 

We send a care guide with each order and we are more than happy to answer any questions you have.
