This is our standard all around fertilizer we use at the nursery for pretty much everything. The controlled release fertilizer has 5 to 6 months of constant feed at an average temperature of 70° (F). Of course in warmer conditions the time release is much faster shortening the life span to 3 to 4 months. It can be incorporated in any potting media at a rate of 1/2 to 1 teaspoon per 6-inch pot or broadcast at a rate of 2 to 3.5 ounces per square yard or cubic foot of mix.
This is a good quality, versatile formula for epiphytic plants. This fertilizer does not use urea as a nitrogen source, as it is not usable by epiphytic plants. Water soluble, it can be used in daily irrigation or applied at intervals. Will not burn foliage at recommended rates and does not stain foliage. This is the fertilizer we use here at Tropiflora for our bromeliads, orchids and all epiphytic plants.
Application Rates: Constant Feed: A rate of 50 to 150 ppm of nitrogen is recommended. For bi-weekly applications: Use at the rate of 1½ to 2 tsp per gallon of water. Monthly: 1 to 1½ to tbs/gal.
Decorative ceramic Autumn pumpkin planters, perfect for your favorite small tillandsia. This collection includes 4 pumpkins, one of each color as shown, for a set price of $24.99. Each planter measures 3" tall, includes a drain hole.
Somewhat squat plastic pots, three quarters as tall as wide, with drainage holes. This is the most common style of pot that we use here at Tropiflora and are pretty much the “industry standard” for most production of tropical plants and succulents.
We only stock in forest green. We do not carry other colors.
