Ericaceous plants are plants that favour acidic growing conditions. Using a specialist feed formulated for these plants makes it easier to provide appropriate nutrition rather than relying on a general-purpose plant food.
For container-grown acid-loving plants, pair this feed with a suitable ericaceous compost or growing medium.
For foliar applications, avoid spraying open flowers and choose cool, overcast conditions.
Keep the concentrated feed in its original container and follow all instructions and precautions shown on the product label.
Measure carefully and dilute with water at the recommended rate before use.
Store securely in a cool, dry place away from children and pets. Avoid contamination of ponds, waterways and other water sources.
