6" pot size, approximately 15-25cm in height. | Charlie Carp All Purpose is one of Australia's best organically based, environmentally friendly general-purpose liquid fertiliser. This award-winning general fertiliser that can be used on all plants and shrubs, is organically based and is made from European carp, a pest that is destroying Australian waterways.
The 1 litre concentrate All Purpose Fertiliser is an economical way to get the most out of a bottle. Standard dilution rate is 10ml to 1 litre of water (1 cap full = 10ml) or alternatively if using a standard watering can (9 litres) – 90ml of concentrate into 9 litres of water.
- For the best results we recommend applying to the foliage until saturated to the point of dripping – this allows the plants to take in the nutrients immediately, and the run-off drips into the soil feeding the roots.
- Charlie Carp is best applied on its own as mixing with other products may effect performance.
- When temperatures exceed 32°C do not apply to foliage as leaf or fruit damage may be possible.
Use Charlie Carp for all plants & shrubs including: Lawns, Vegetables, Flowers, Indoor Plants, Hanging Baskets, Strawberries, Palms, Orchids, Roses, Ferns, Native Shrubs, Seedlings, Herbs.

Black Pantha has near black (very dark purple blue) flower buds that burst into large flower heads late November. They have a unique colour and form and add a touch of drama to your garden throughout the warmer months.
It is virtually sterile which makes it safe to plant close to natural vegetation and other sensitive areas. Drought resistant plant in full sun to light shade and protect from severe frosts when young. Black Pantha is ideal for mass planting borders and pots. Plants do not tolerate waterlogging so ensure a well drained soil.
Agapanthus plants are the perfect plant for a wide range of garden aspects, great for edging a driveway or fence line. They are hardy, low maintenance plants that are tolerant of drought and poor soil. Producing an abundance of bright purple, blue and white flowers, makes them a beloved addition to many gardens.
