UNCLE TOM'S ROSE TONIC

Product Information

The most important thing when caring for roses is to feed them at least twice a year to help keep them strong and healthy,” says Chris Styles, a partner at Style Roses. Unfortunately, for many gardeners, the usual response when growing roses is to reach for non-organic, synthetic fertilisers. Our Sulphur Rose formulation is easy and convenient to use, simple sprinkle the Sulphur Rose directly into water, stir and apply INNER JOIN `catalog_category_product_index_store1` AS `cat_index` ON cat_index.product_id=e.entity_id AND cat_index.store_id=1 AND cat_index.visibility IN(2, 4) AND cat_index.category_id=2

These can sadly often do more harm than good and are a poor choice for wildlife and the environment.When roses are growing in the soil, they can tap into the resources present in the soil in which they grow since, thanks to mycorrhizae, they can draw on nutrients even beyond their own root systems. Farm-Fos-44 is essentially a foliar feed, but in my view is very effective at protecting plants from damaging diseases. I don't know quite how it works, but the important thing is that it does! My trials have now been replicated by many others of the British rose industry with similar successful results.

You can use your SULPHUR ROSE mix in your sprayer or refil an empty SULPHUR ROSE 1 litre hand srayerOne interesting thing that goes on below the soil around roses is that roses form a symbiosis with mycorrhizae, which form fungal networks stretching out from the roots of the roses into the surrounding soil. 1 Mycorrhizal Fungi.

This wild growth will look different, being a lime green leaf colour with a matt finish, which can overtake the growth of the correct grafted rose and eventually kill off the grafted part of the rose if not controlled. This photo shows just how much difference regular feeding makes. Both ‘ Frilly Cuff’ roses were pruned at exactly the same time and to the same height, but the big difference is that one has been fed fortnightly, whereas the other one hasn’t been fed at all. As you can see the plant that received a regular feed is much bigger, healthier and is bursting with buds. Many feeds are available, but the one we w ould most recommend is Uncle Tom’s Rose Tonic, which we used for this demonstration. Uncle Tom’s Rose Tonic will not only encourage strong healthy growth but will also increase disease resistance.

If those plants are to take up that water and those nutrients, then their roots need to be growing strongly, too. And the first thing I like to feed with, is super phosphate. Sprinkle this around the surface of the soil and lightly fork it in and it’ll be washed down towards the plant roots and it’ll encourage them to grow. The other thing This is also something that you can make yourself at home, using any potassium-rich leaves from plants like comfrey or other dynamic accumulators of potassium. Mulching Roses
