beckygardener said:I have never seen florikan here locally. Very interesting information! Will see if I can find some. I go through a bag of fertilizer that size several times a year. It would be great to only apply once. When do you fertilize, Michele? Spring?


Here is the link to the places that sell it in Florida and most are down in South Florida. There are a few that have above the names "more Florida locations" so if you don't see one near you try going to their website to see where their other locations are.


I do the majority of my fertilizing in the fall when we divide and replant everything or move seedlings. And since we usually use the 270 day to 360 day it will carry us into the fall of the following year. I do reapply alfalfa several times a year. One reason we do it in the fall is because that is when we are moving, dividing, replanting everything so it makes it easier to just do it then. In places (more Northern) where people do their cleanup, dividing, and such in the spring then it would make sense do it then.
