DIEHARD™ FLOWER BED

DIEHARD™ Flower Bed is formulated as a preparation to inoculate the ground with live beneficial mycorrhizal fungi when planting.  It contains highly selected species of endomycorrhizal fungi that will quickly colonize the roots of flowering plants to provide the best possible conditions for the roots to grow and extract from the root zone water and nutrients. The fungi are combined with Trichoderma, humic acids, biostimulants, beneficial bacteria, soluble sea kelp, and yucca plant extracts to promote rapid root development. The formulation Horta-Sorb® water management gel is added to this inoculant to reduce transplant stress and watering maintenance, and to slow release all soluble components. The results are better flowerbeds with less maintenance.
