best flower fertiliser
 

I've been using Growmore for a couple of years but, as flowers and
shrubs are all I grow, I'm thinking of switching to a tomato type
fertiliser. It seems this only comes in a liquid form, which I find a
bit labour intensive to apply. Is there something else I could use?
TIA

Thanks. I just wonder how different that is to Growmore. Seems like
another "all purpose" feed, which I assume encourages leaf growth and
flowers equally.

I can't use Blood, Fish and bone here because the foxes dig to try to
find the food

Is a hose-end feeder an option for you or are you in a potential
hosepipe ban area? Miracle Grow do a hose end thingy I think though I
use QVC's Flower Power plant food which I think is a lot better
(indeed has given me better results than Tomato Food).

Yep, potential hose pipe ban, but I'll bear the QVC product in mind.
Thanks for that
