Not knowing what you use it's difficult to say whether what I use is new to you. Since it's extremely popular I imagine you're familiar with it. So far I've used only alfalfa meal with very good success. The roses invariably respond to it with new growth and flowers. I try to hit every rose with it at least twice a year, usually after the spring bloom and then late summer when they seem to be flagging. Depending on the rose it's half a cup to a cup. With 82 roses and a wimpy energy level it's all I can really manage although I want to try a kelp and fish emulsion spray on some of the roses that aren't growing as fast or as well as I'd like. So far the bottles haven't made it out of the pantry, but hope springs eternal.....
