If purchased on the same order as dahlia tubers, they will all ship in the Spring. If this item is needed immediately, please place a separate order. Thank you for your understanding.
3-16-0 is a marine-based alternative to traditional steamed bone meal and is a great source of organic phosphorus and calcium. As one of the three big nutrients for plants, phosphorous plays a role in both root and bloom development, which helps produce high-quality fruit and flowers. Phosphorus helps plants take to new soil by boosting root development. Strong root development means plants will grow faster and be healthier because they can absorb more water and nutrients from the soil. DTE™ Fish Bone Meal 3-16-0 also contains a small amount of organic nitrogen and is an ideal fertilizer for new garden beds, perennials and bulbs. Add 1 Tbsp (up to a small handful) per hole for dahlia tubers. Mix thoroughly into soil.
