Home Depot carries nutricote but it's labeled Dynamite and it's in very small containers so not worth getting if you have a lot of plants
You can see if you can find the Scott's brand or Osmocote.

I checked the Florikan website which makes nutricote to see if any places near you sell it. I don't know how close they are to you but here is a couple of places in Virginia

I'm not sure if they actually have retail location or not. I know here places like that do and you can buy it without an account; you could always call them and see. I looked on BFG's website and they sell the Nutricote 18-6-8 total. It seems to be a bit pricey there because I usually only pay $50-$70 per bag at BWI

Yes, we have a Feed & Seed. I got a big bag of 10-10-10 last year and usually throw in a few when I pot something. I have some very clean sand, it does not say play sand but it is nice. I do remember reading about the name Dynamite somewhere but I know I can get my guy Tom at the F&S to figure it out or order it. Thanks so much for the information. For me it does not have to be the 360 formula and with that in mind I might be able to use Osmacote or the plain 10-10-10? I'm just trying to focus on getting through the winter. I got bigger pots, because most of the daylilies in one gallon pots were suffering and rotting. The bigger pots have better drainage and my new mix helps too but it is not perfect. I need more sand and the Dynamite stuff looks good. I found some time released in one pound bottles for 4.99 that's the 9 month kind. I will ask Tom at F&S first.
