Neutrog Bush Tucker 20 kg

A scientifically formulated, organic-based fertiliser tailored to the specific nutritional needs of Australian native plants, including phosphorus-sensitive species such as grevilleas, banksias, and proteas.

Developed by Neutrog in partnership with native plant specialist Angus Stewart and soil scientist Simon Leake, Bush Tucker is proudly endorsed by the Australian Plants Society of Victoria Inc.

As with all Neutrog products, the Bush Tucker formula was developed over a number of years and was widely trialled by numerous expert native plant growers prior to release. Bush Tucker is a complete,  organic-based, boosted fertiliser, specifically developed to meet the specialised needs of all Australian native plants.

Utilising a unique process, trace elements have been added to lock up phosphorus, making Bush Tucker ideal for even the most phosphorus-sensitive plants such as grevilleas, banksias, and proteas. Bush Tucker not only directly supplies a wide range of essential nutrients but, more importantly, provides a catalyst (through the introduction of beneficial bacteria/microbes) for stimulating the natural processes that occur in the soil – unlocking further nutrients and enhancing root growth. Greater root growth provides a greater soil surface area from which your plants can draw nutrients and moisture.
