Rootgrow Professional (5 Litre Tub)

Rootgrow Professional (5 Litre Tub) Code: XPW010

£101.95 inc. p&p 101.9500 In Stock New

rootgrow™ can offer huge benefits to almost all garden plants. It is the only product that will support your plants for their entire lifetime, making it probably the best value purchase you will make. Comprising of (UK origin) Mycorrhizal fungi, rootgrow™ is 100% natural and is the only planting aid to carry the RHS seal of approval.

For better establishment, naturally healthier plants, better drought resistance and stronger flowering and fruiting, rootgrow™ is all you need. Mycorrhizal fungi will colonise the plant and develop into a huge secondary root system that will increase the root area of your plants by up to 700 times in just a few weeks. This will help the plant find essential nutrients, minerals and moisture, enabling the plant to establish quicker and reducing the risk of failure.

One simple application at planting time is all that is required. Once you have used this amazing product you will wonder how you ever managed to grow your plants without it!

Almost all new plants will benefit from rootgrow™ but there are a few exceptions: blueberries, cranberries, lingonberries, rhododendrons, azaleas, heathers & brassicas. It should be noted that using rootgrow™ on these plants will not harm them - it just won’t work.


rootgrow™ Professional is suitable for garden designers, landscapers and private individuals with large gardens or planting projects. All rootgrow™ Professional products can be used as a dry granule or mixed with a root dipping gel (supplied) for bare root plants. One 5 litre tub will treat 1000-1500 bare rooted plants or 200 x 2 litre pots.


Tub size: 5 litres (approx 5kg).


Price includes p&p to mainland U.K.
