The release of nutrients depends on temperature - more when it's warm and plants are growing and less when it's cold and growth is slow
Scotts Osmocote® uses advanced prill technology that ensures even and controlled nutrient release with no wastage
Controlled release means feeding less often and more effectively; less frequent feeding is more economical and environment-friendly
Wetting agent improves water absorption into the soil or potting mix and helps plants take up nutrients
Boosted iron keeps leaves greener for longer

SUITABLE FOR

All plants in the garden or in pots preferring an acid soil or potting mix and fertiliser (pH 5.2 - 6.2)
Roses in the ground and in pots
Safe to use on new plants - the controlled release of nutrients means it will not burn soft leaves or tender young roots
