It’s not you, it’s your potting mix!
We rave about our Searles Platinum because we know it works. Not just “keeps your plants alive”, but actively helps them grow, flower and fruit in abundance.
These pansies were all planted from the same punnet, same day, same conditions and same watering.
While the cheaper option hasn’t died, it has remained smaller with less blooms. It will probably die first as it doesn’t have the larger root system to keep it healthy in the soil.
The mid range bag has enough of everything to keep the plant growing - adding size and more flowers over the time. You’d be content if you saw this amount of growth, and most people think that’s normal.
Then there’s the platinum. It takes the plant to its biggest and best capacity. (Cocko even ate a few blooms off this one before he was not-so-gently reminded to not eat the plants!) LOTS of flowering, emerald green leaves and 4 times the size! It is happy and healthy and still growing strong!
This is all we use. In the display pots in the nursery, in our own homes and gardens, in veggie season, in indoors - basically anything in a container will love Platinum.
Come see us, we’ll be happy to talk to you about it and the difference it makes. We are all Platinum fans.
