Feed strong roots and sturdy plants, naturally and slowly. Talborne VitaBone Bonemeal Phosphate is a natural slow-release soil amendment that stimulates vigorous, healthy growth while promoting strong roots and sturdy plants.

  • Slow, steady feeding: releases its nutrients over 1–4 months as it breaks down.
  • Great for root crops: especially beneficial for carrots, onions, radishes, parsnips and turnips.
  • Boosts bulbs & tubers: flowers grown from bulbs, corms and tubers also benefit.
  • Works with biology: pair with beneficial bacteria (e.g. Biodyne 401 or BioFetoPower) to break it into plant-available form.

NPK 4-10-0 (14); pH 6.9; supplied in 2kg bags. Bonemeal is water-insoluble and must be broken down before plants can absorb it — by soil acidity (pH below 7.0) or by microbial activity producing acids. Caution: bonemeal (and other phosphorus sources) is toxic to members of the Protea family and other plants adapted to nutrient-poor soils.
