Get some potassium nitrate or ammonium nitrate 16-20-0. These are
fertilizers and should be gentle on your plants.

Does anyone know of a brand or type of salt to use in snow/ice areas of the
country?
The regular salt for melting ice washes off when the ice melts and runs into
some of our
ornamental shrubs and perennials. This always results in plants nearest to
the runoff dying by spring. Any suggestions are appreciated.
