Miracle-Gro Shake 'N Feed Rose & Bloom Plant Food, 4.5 lb (6-Pack) — Continuous‑Release for Roses & Flowering Plants

Miracle-Gro Shake 'N Feed Rose & Bloom is a continuous-release granular plant food that feeds flowering plants and roses for up to three months with a single application.

If you want fuller color and more blooms without daily fertilizing, this 4.5 lb formula supplies steady nutrition above and below the soil. The granules combine natural sources—kelp, feather meal, bone meal and earthworm castings—that support soil life and slowly convert into plant-available nutrients. It’s made for both container and in-ground flowering plants and promises easy, low-risk use when applied as directed.

How does this feed plants for three months?

The product uses a slow-release mechanism in granular form so nutrients are delivered gradually rather than all at once. Soil microbes decompose the natural ingredients and release nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients over time, extending the feeding window. That steady supply helps reduce the need for frequent reapplication while promoting consistent growth and blooms.

• Continuous-release granules for extended feeding
• Microbe-targeted ingredients such as kelp and castings
• One application feeds many plants for about 90 days
• Works in both pots and garden beds

Will it burn my roses or other flowering plants?

When used according to the directions, this formula is designed not to scorch plant roots or foliage. The nutrient release is moderated so spikes in concentration are avoided, lowering burn risk common with quick-release fertilizers. Always apply to dry soil, work in lightly, and water to activate the granules safely.

• Engineered for gentle, gradual nutrient delivery
• Apply to dry soil and mix in before watering
• Follow package rates for containers vs. in-ground beds
• Reapply every three months for continuous results

What kinds of plants and situations is this best for?

This blend is tailored for roses and other flowering ornamentals—annuals, perennials and flowering shrubs—whether they grow in pots or garden soil. It’s suitable for both established plantings and newly planted specimens, providing the root and bloom support those plants commonly benefit from. Each 4.5 lb container covers a substantial area, making it practical for small to medium gardens.

• Recommended for roses, bedding flowers, perennials, and shrubs
• Use in containers, raised beds, and in-ground plantings
• Each 4.5 lb feeds up to 135 sq. ft. or roughly 30 rose bushes
• Effective for both new plantings and maintenance feeding

How do I apply Shake 'N Feed Rose & Bloom correctly?

Application is straightforward—no measuring into water or complicated mixing required. Shake the granules evenly over dry soil, gently work them into the top layer, and water to begin the nutrient release. Stick to the recommended amounts on the packaging and reapply every three months to maintain continuous feeding.

• Shake granules onto dry soil surface
• Mix lightly into the top inch of soil
• Water thoroughly after application to activate feed
• Repeat approximately every 90 days for season-long upkeep

Who is this for? Home gardeners who want noticeable flower performance with minimal upkeep will appreciate this product. It fits people who prefer an easy-to-use granular fertilizer that supports soil life, strengthens roots, and promotes longer-lasting blooms. Ideal for gardeners managing containers, flower beds, or multiple rose bushes who want a dependable, seasonal feeding schedule without daily effort.
