Clematis and Climbers Food 3-5-4
-
Detail
Your goal is to grow a healthy, happy, productive plant, so your first thought is to give it some food. Great! But if you grab a basic high-nitrogen fertilizer, you’ll just be encouraging a whole lot of leaves. With Clematis and other climbers, you really want root growth and flower development. Roots for health and strength, and flowers (obviously) for beauty. That’s why we offer a specifically formulated Clematis and Climbers Food 3-5-4, which is so much better for your vines than the average garden center formula. If you want to know a bit of the science, the nitrogen (the first number, N, in the NPK formula, which is 3 in our 3-5-4 formula) is lower, and there’s much more available phosphorus (the second number, P, in the NPK formula, which is 5 in our 3-5-4 formula). That ratio of nitrogen and phosphorus will encourage well-developed root systems and vivid, abundant flowers. This is a slow-release formula, so you won’t need to apply it so often. We suggest one application in spring and fall, plus mixing an application into the soil when you first plant a new climber.

Good value for money. Seems to be helping my climbing hydrangea establish itself. Would have given 5 stars if the instructions were clearer on frequency.
Loy******ner
Not sure if it worked. My plants didn't show much improvement. Maybe I expected too much too soon.
Alis********athy
Fast shipping and great results. My plants love it.
Feli********ulke
Excellent fertilizer for climbers. I used it on my honeysuckle and ivy. The color of the leaves improved significantly and the flowering was abundant. Definitely worth the price for serious gardeners.
Jamar**********mann
It's okay. Didn't see a massive difference compared to my old fertilizer, but no harm done either.
Daw*******min
Love it! My clematis are blooming like crazy.
Em*****th
I've tried several brands, but this one is by far the best for my wisteria. The 3-5-4 ratio is perfect for promoting flowers without too much leafy growth. Very happy with the results after just a few weeks of use.
Jor******nte
Works well, but the packaging was a bit messy. The fertilizer itself seems effective for my jasmine.
Prof********Dare
Great product. Easy to apply and my climbing roses responded quickly with new growth. Will buy again next season.
