Minnesota's Destination Garden Center

Gertens is one of North America’s largest garden centers and home to Minnesota’s largest selection of annuals, perennials, natives, houseplants, trees, shrubs, and evergreens.  We’ve been “Growing in the Grove” in Inver Grove Heights since 1921 and our campus now covers over 100 acres of shopping and growing facilities. Gertens is still a family-owned business with a focus on giving customers the ability to buy high-quality plants and trees directly from a local grower.  After all, IT'S ONLY NATURAL TO BUY FROM THE GROWER.

Promotes Growth & Flowering All natural & organic. Mix with water ~ Feed instantly. Beneficial microbes ensure superior results

FOR USE ON: For all Cactus & Succulents

WHEN TO USE: Feed every 2 to 4 weeks

HOW MUCH TO USE: Directions for use: We recommend wearing gardening gloves when feeding your plants. Shake well prior to mixing with water. Mix at a rate of 1/2 cap (2 tsp.) per quart of water. It is best to add concentrate and then add water for thorough mixing. Thoroughly drench the soil of the plant. Repeat every 2-4 weeks.

HOW TO APPLY: Thoroughly drench the soil of the plant – ideally the water would flow through the container and some would run out of the bottom of the pot.  Be sure to have a saucer under the plant to catch the runoff! Remove the water from the saucer so the plant is not sitting in water.
