In general, we always speak of flowers when we mean annual flowering plants. Perennials and biennial plants can also be included here, but they are only left in one area for one year.<\/p>\n<p>Summer flowers need special fertilizers for the following reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Summer flowers are often demanding exotic species that have been bred to have a rich set of flowers. The numerous flowers also cause the high nutritional requirements<\/li>\n<li>Summer flowers from professional products are used to high levels of nutrients and optimal growing conditions<\/li>\n<li>When planted outdoors, summer flowers experience a veritable planting shock; optimal soil preparation and nutrient supply can help alleviate this<\/li>\n<li>The root system of summer flowers is by no means as pronounced and efficient as that of perennials, which is why good availability is all the more important<\/li>\n<li>Summer flowers complete, in a very short time, sometimes enormous vegetative growth spurts, which further increases their need. A good example is a sunflower<\/li>\n<li>The vast majority of summer flowers need the main nutrients nitrogen, phosphate, and potassium oxide in a ratio of 9: 3: 14 so that an appropriate special fertilizer is available<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_flower_fertilizer_made_of\"><\/span>What is flower fertilizer made of?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Flower fertilizers are offered as mineral, organic, organic-mineral, or organic fertilizers. In addition to the main nutritional elements mentioned above, other nutritional elements are often also included. While mineral fertilizers only contain nutrient salts in concentrated form, organic fertilization also adds structural material to soil fertilization. All types of flower fertilizers have their advantages and disadvantages, so we will draw a comparison below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You might so like<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/fertilizing-peonies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fertilizing Peonies: When And What To Fertilize Correctly?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/hydrangea-fertilizers-everything-you-should-know-at-a-glance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hydrangea Fertilizers: Everything You Should Know At A Glance<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/fertilizing-raspberries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">When And How To Fertilizing Raspberries?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Flower_fertilizer_in_the_test\"><\/span>Flower fertilizer in the test<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To meet the high demands of spoiled summer flowers and to be able to enjoy their splendor, you should choose the right fertilizer.

In solid form, the nutrients are present as salts of the nutrient ions; in liquid fertilizers, these ions are held individually in the aqueous solution by so-called chelates. Mineral fertilizers are often high in nutrients and the simplest products are quite cheap. What all mineral fertilizers have in common is their very rapid action, which is suitable for the targeted treatment of acute nutrient deficiencies.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\" \/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/b9dd252ccd7497dc182c29bca255be0c.jpg\" alt=\"Flower Fertilizer: How To Create A Blooming Paradise\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Mineral flower fertilizers permanently damage soil life<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, mineral fertilization also has some significant disadvantages:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Good solubility can lead to overfertilization damage and leaching, especially liquid fertilizers are quickly washed away in the field and get into the groundwater<\/li>\n<li>If soil is only ever fertilized with mineral fertilizers, its quality will decrease in the long term.
