Description

High-Potassium Mineral Blend to Boost Bloom, Fruit & Root Development

Slow-release (4-6 months) 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.

Why choose Flowers, Fruits and Roots Liquid Granular:

  • 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

How it Works

The Science Behind Flowers, Fruits and Roots Granular Fertiliser:

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.

This isn’t just a fertiliser, it’s a biological strategy for maximising flowering cycles, boosting fruit yields, and supporting root anchorage, all while improving soil health.

Review of Liquid Fulvic Acid Lawn & Garden Biostimulant, Premium Soil Nutrient Chelator - 1L

Seed Germination

I have tried the fulvic acid on seed germination with fantastic results. Soaked Adenium seeds overnight in diluted fulvic acid.. the results were amazing, once the seeds were planted they germinated a lot quicker than normal with nearly 100 % germination. Very happy with this product and can totally recommend to others.

Review of MSM Capsules – High-Purity Organic Sulphur 460mg

MSM Supplement 460mg

This MSM Supplement has made a significant difference to my recovery from a serious Lis Franc foot injury after months of little to no improvement. Less pain and more elasticity in the badly injured area of the foot. Could not be happier.

Review of Quantum H® Liquid Humic Acid Lawn & Garden Soil Conditioner - 1L

Brilliant

I have been using Quantum H on my Santa Anna lawn now for years in conjunction with other PD products and the results have been consistently brilliant.

I’m really impressed with Plant Doctor's PREMIUM Fossil Shell Flour. The powder is finely milled, so smooth it mixes easily into water, smoothies or morning coffee without any grittiness. It’s simple to use, and appreciate that it has no taste or smell. The 800g bag is great value and will last a long time when using a teaspoon daily.
