Thank you for your help. I use Osmocote every other year. One of the varieties is Indian Chief. I do not know the names of the others. Indian Chief, a yellow, purple and pink variety are the only ones that have bloomed. I have hundreds of them and would love to see others bloom to see if their colors are as pretty. I have them planted under a 100 year old sweetgum tree in a pasture. I have loads of earthworms and leaf litter in the soil they are in.
How long do you steam bonemeal? I have some old in the freezer that I need to do something with. I will try to find some pics on my computer and post them later.
Thanks,
Lisa
