Highland Rim Fertilizer

Highland Rim Fertilizer

Whether you're an experienced green-thumb or a novice gardener, you know that all plants need certain nutrients to grow. The problem is that different plants need different nutrient balances to thrive. And, with the multitude of plant fertilizers on the market, it can seem overwhelming to try to select the one that will be just right for your water garden.

That's why the Highland Rim aquatic-plant fertilizer tablets were developed to take the guesswork out of feeding your water-garden beauties and to give them the right formula of nutrients to bloom their very best.

On just about any fertilizer package, you'll usually see three numbers prominently displayed on the label ‹ like 5-10-5 or 10-10-10. Those numbers describe the product's proportion of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K), which are three essential nutrients for plant growth. Nitrogen produces healthy green foliage growth, while potassium helps boost resistance to disease and promotes plant vigor. Phosphorus ‹ the middle number ‹ is the element most responsible for luxurious blooming.

Specially formulated for blooming aquatic plants, with a 10-26-10 ratio of nutrients, Highland Rim fertilizer tablets give your water lilies, lotuses and blooming marginals plenty of phosphorus to produce the most spectacular blossoms possible. In particular, water lilies and lotuses are heavy feeders that need regular fertilizing ‹ if you underfeed them, they'll under-perform, with unimpressive flowers, yellow leaves and a weak appearance. With nourishment from Highland Rim fertilizer tablets, they'll produce their biggest, brightest, most beautiful blooms possible.

Highland Rim fertilizer tablets were developed by a water-garden nursery known worldwide for superior plants and products. The essential elements and key micronutrients in each Highland Rim tablet are carefully formulated to promote flowering plants' maximum blooming potential. Specifically created as a fast-acting fertilizer, Highland Rim tablets give newly planted aquatic plants a strong, early start.

Highland Rim tablets are safe and non-toxic. They will not promote algae blooms in ponds, and they will not harm fish or other aquatic life. Many water lilies, such as Victoria (one of the most popular night-blooming lilies), grow poorly with fertilizers containing copper. Highland Rim's copper-free formula avoids those problems entirely.

Highland Rim tablets will not crumble and dissolve in the water before you get them into the plant containers because of our patented binder that keeps the tablets firm. The large 10-gram tablet size means you need fewer tablets per pot than with smaller tablets.

Highland Rim tablets are available in several convenient package sizes, for home-gardeners, retailers and wholesalers.

Whether you have a single water garden at home or you're a major retailer or wholesaler of aquatic plants and products, Highland Rim aquatic-plant fertilizer tablets are packaged in a size that's right for you.

Pond Care Aquatic Plant Food

Pond Care Aquatic Plant Food

Continuous-release tablet formula containing essential nutrients & trace elements for non-stop blooming of hardy & tropical plants. 

  • Rich in iron for lush green growth
  • Contains boron to promote flower formation
  • Keeps water lilies blooming all season long
  • Promotes beautiful foliage
  • Benefits bog & marginal plants such as iris, canna & taro

To produce flowers and develop beautiful foliage, aquatic plants need a continuous supply of nutrients. Pond Care® Aquatic Plant Food tablets contain necessary nutrients and essential trace elements, including iron, in a slow release formula. Pond Care® Aquatic Plant Food insures that pond plants keep blooming and produce beautiful foliage all season long.

Nearly all aquatic plants obtain nutrients through their roots. Nutrients are absorbed from the soil by the roots and translocated to the rest of the plant. Water gardeners use potting soil, garden soil, or purchase their plants "potted up" from the nursery. The nutrient quality and content of these soils is unknown. Aquatic plants will not grow unless all the necessary nutrients are available. If, for example, the manganese level is deficient, new growth will appear yellowish. A lack of calcium slows growth and increases the plant’s susceptibility to fungal and bacterial diseases. Water lilies, for example, are heavy feeders and must have a constant supply of nutrients to keep producing flowers.

Aquatic Plant Food tablets are designed to be placed directly into the soil of potted aquatic plants. This product contains major nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) as well as essential trace elements (iron, manganese, zinc, boron, copper, sulfur, calcium and magnesium) in a slow-release formula. This unique formulation ensures that your pond plants keep blooming all season long. Nutrients absorbed by the roots are transported throughout the plant. Aquatic Plant Food tablets provide a continuous supply of the nutrition necessary for vigorous growth and flowering, and winter hardiness. Aquatic Plant Food tablets are safe for use with pond fish and do not stimulate algae blooms when used as directed, because nutrients are released directly into the soil for quick uptake by plant roots.

Directions For Using Aquatic Plant Tablets:

1. Use one tablet for every gallon of soil. Push tablet(s) into the plant soil, 3 inches from the crown of the plant and 3 to 6 Inches deep. Press soil around the inserted tablets.

2. Use the chart below as a guide for fertilizing all pond plants.
