This Product was on https://www.qvcuk.com now they NO longer stock it but a more expensive substitute by Richard Jackson the News Of The World Gardening Guru.

I have used RootBlast and I think it works not sure its as enormous as the American Style Marketing.

I mistakenly purchased Miracle Gro Organic "Organic Choice" Root Booster but this will burn the Plug Plants roots apparently.

QVCUK.com currently sell this

£9:95 plus £3:95 for only 750grams it does NOT last long considering the leeching of the fertiliser that happens each time you water something one needs to do regularly to establish plug plants.

Miracle Gro advice line said to use just use an enriched compost to start with not sure the results will be as good though.

Oh Yes Blood Fish & Bone burns the roots of the plug plants too:)

    Re:Thompson & Morgan Plants Seeds Bulbs etc are they worth it?

    http://www.thompson-morgan.com

    People on other forums say Thompson & Morgan's Catalogue printed or online
    is "Touched Up" or Photoshoped and that the plants when grown don't look anything link their orginal catalogue

    search Thompson & Morgan User Reviews on Google

    would you agree I have some plugs delivered from them Dead on Arrival they did offer a replacement.they were double F1 Busy Lizzies


    Which Mail Order Nursery do you recommend ones with designer plug plants on offer?

    All T&M's plants come from Jersey Channel Islands

    https://www.jerseyplantsdirect.com are fairly good but they do NOT stock the variety that T&M does

    Just google osmocote. This is a slow release fertiliser which is used commercially for growing plants from plug to full size. It won't burn roots of plug plants and seedlings if used at 1/2 strength for small plants and normal strength when repotting. If you find later that the adult plants need a boost then water with Miracle Grow or similar.
