Nikko Blue Hydrangea Planting
Nikko Blue Hydrangea Planting

Is it ok to give shrubs and plants Miracle Gro in their first year?
I have a bunch of new shrubs and plants. I have read that it is better to not fertilize in the first year shrubs/plants are in their new settings. However, I have a Nikko Blue Hydrangea which I would like to have blue blooms by giving it Miracid. Should I not give this Hydrangea Miracid this year because this is it’s first year in my landscape? I do not wish to make this a religious discussion for or against Miracle Gro. I just want to know if there are situations where fertilizing in the first year is ok.
Yes! Plants need their nutrients just like we do. I would definitely feed them, just don’t over-do it. Follow directions on fertilizer package. I always start my new plantings with a slow-release granular fertilizer mixed in the soil near the roots, then follow that with a good drink of miracle gro to give them a good start.
