Review: Excellent quality and great value, my mom’s orchids are thriving! - I bought this fertilizer for my mom’s orchids, and she’s absolutely thrilled with the results! The quality is excellent, and it’s very easy to use. She uses it on all her orchids, and since she started, they’ve been growing healthier and blooming more beautifully than ever. It’s also super effective, and the amount it brings lasts a long time. For the price, it’s honestly a great deal considering the quantity and results. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to give their orchids a real boost!
Review: I'm Impressed - I bought a plant from a nursery, and the guy who grew them recommended this. It was the best-priced option for the size and will last a long time for the handful of houseplants I own. He said to sprinkle it in the soil twice a year. The day after I used it, I noticed most of my plants looked more lifted and even started sprouting new leaves. I was so impressed, highly recommend!
