We stock six organic Tone products by Espoma®. But what makes each of these fertilizers unique?

Plant-tone® is their all-purpose 5-3-3 plant food for flowers, vegetables, trees, and shrubs. If you like our Kerby’s Special but want something organic, try this.

Garden-tone®, 3-4-4, promotes vigorous growth and increases crop yield for all herbs and veggies. Use monthly during the growing season.

Tomato-tone®, 3-4-6, is higher in calcium to help prevent blossom end rot. Use on all Tomato varieties along with Peppers, Squashes, and Melons since they also produce a flower. Use every two weeks during the growing season.

Azalea-tone®, 4-3-4, is for acid-loving plants, such as Azaleas, Camellias, and Gardenias. Use at the beginning of spring, summer, and fall.

Rose-tone®, 4-3-2, promotes healthier plants and larger blooms. Use on grafted, Knock Out®, and Drift® Roses. Just make sure to read how much to apply so as to not overfeed.

And we can’t forget Bio-tone®. This is used while planting and must be added to the hole. It contains mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial bacteria that improves soil health and creates a sturdy root system to establish plants quicker.

And since they’re all organic, they won’t burn plants and won’t leach out of the soil.

Anybody can sell you plants, we make sure you succeed.
