Which fertilizer increases flowering?
In general, fertilizers formulated for flowering plants would contain amounts of nitrogen less than or equal to the amounts of phosphorus (i. This is because phosphorus encourages flowering. However, complete fertilizers sold for flowering plants (including roses and bulbs) such as 15-30-50 or 10-30-20 contain higher amounts of phosphorus (the second number) than nitrogen or potassium and are often labeled as “blossom or bloom booster”.The ideal NPK ratio for flowering and fruiting plants focuses on providing high levels of phosphorus and potassium while keeping nitrogen at moderate levels. Ratios like NPK 10-30-20 or NPK 5-15-30 offer the perfect balance of nutrients to support healthy blooms and high-quality fruits.
What to add to soil for more flowers?
Cover crops, purchased and homemade compost, rock powders, natural fertilizers, mulch, compost tea and various foliar treatments are all part of our fertility arsenal.
