- Provides iron in a chelated form which can easily be taken up in any soil.
- Cures iron deficiency and allows lime-hating plants to be grown in alkaline soil.
- One application in early spring is all that’s needed for strong growth of all your ericaceous plants, including Pieris, Skimmia and Raspberries.
- Ericaceous plants are often referred to as lime-hating or acid-loving plants.
- The most commonly grown ericaceous plants are: Azalea, Camellia and Rhododendrons.
- These plants thrive in a low lime environment (pH 5 to 5.5).
- If they are grown in soil where the pH is too high, they produce poor growth and the leaves tend to become yellowish in colour.
