Description
High-Potassium Mineral Blend to Boost Bloom, Fruit & Root Development
Slow-release NPK fertiliser with extra minerals for blooms, flavour and soil fertility. If your flowers are fading fast or your veggies lack flavour, it’s probably not just water they’re missing, it’s balanced nutrition. Flowers, Fruits & Roots is a premium granular fertiliser designed to feed your plants and the soil. It delivers slow-release nutrients along with natural minerals and trace elements to boost colour, taste, and yield, all while improving long-term soil health. Whether you're aiming to boost flowering and fruit set, improve slow plant growth or poor yields, or you've noticed a drop in flavour, colour, or harvest quality, Flowers, Fruits & Roots has you covered. It's especially helpful if soil tests reveal mineral depletion, or if you're simply looking to rebuild long-term soil fertility while encouraging healthier, more productive plants.
Flowers, Fruits & Roots is a high-potassium fertiliser specifically formulated to support flowering and fruiting plants and trees. It helps strengthen trunks and roots, boost seed germination, and stimulate beneficial soil microbes for healthier growth. With added bio-protection against disease, improved moisture retention, and the ability to increase Brix (sugar) levels, this blend promotes both plant resilience and harvest quality.
- Grows more vibrant flowers and sweeter fruits
- Encourages deeper root growth and stronger stems
- Enhances soil structure with volcanic rock minerals
- Feeds the soil biology, not just the plants
- Great for all flowering and fruiting plants — edible or ornamental
- Safe for use year-round, including during flowering
- Australian-made with natural, mineral-based ingredients
Every handful of Flowers, Fruits & Roots is more than just plant food, it’s a vote for local growers, healthier soils, and more vibrant gardens. Whether you’re coaxing roses into bloom, feeding your fruit trees, or growing lush perennials for pollinators, you’re doing it with a product that supports Australian farmers, local soil biology, and your backyard ecosystem. Stronger roots, brighter flowers, tastier fruit — that’s what blooming on purpose looks like.

How it Works
At its core, Flowers, Fruits & Roots is a strategically formulated mineral-based fertiliser tailored to support reproductive growth (flowers and fruit) and root architecture across a broad range of plants.
- High Potassium (K) at 20% encourages floral initiation, fruit fill, and colour development, while increasing plant resilience to drought and disease.
- Phosphorus supports root development and bloom quality, but is kept at a balanced 2% to avoid overstimulation in phosphorus-sensitive species.
- Sulfur (8.84%), Calcium (3.79%), and Magnesium (0.56%) help with enzyme activation, cell wall integrity, and chlorophyll production — all essential during high metabolic periods like flowering and fruiting.
- The Silica (6.89%) content aids in strengthening cell walls, making plants more resistant to pests and environmental stress.
- Trace elements like Iron, Zinc, Manganese, Copper, and Boron are present in bioavailable forms to correct micronutrient deficiencies that often limit fruit set and flower development.
- The inclusion of Cobalt and Molybdenum, though in minute amounts, plays a vital role in nitrogen fixation and hormonal balance, especially in legumes and flowering shrubs.
- Granular delivery ensures slow, steady nutrient release, reducing leaching and enhancing root zone microbial activity for long-term soil fertility.

Only have great things to say about Plant Doctor. Organic products and a competitive price, fast shipping and easy to contact with questions. Have had great results with the special mix for lawns, and my plants (indoor and outdoor) love the seaweed secrets. I am excited to test out some of the animal products soon!
