Description / Bonide® Rose Shield™ Systemic Rose & Flower Care Granules 8-12-4 (6lb)
Use Bonide Rose Shield Systemic Rose & Flower Care to nourish and protect your roses and flowering plants with one smart solution. This long-lasting formula feeds for up to 8 weeks while defending against damaging pests like aphids, Japanese beetles, and leafminers. It's a powerful duo: a systemic insecticide and premium fertilizer in one, promoting vigorous growth and more abundant blooms.
With a guaranteed analysis of 8% nitrogen, 12% phosphorus, and 4% potassium, plus essential micronutrients, this Bonide blend supports healthy root and flower development. It features 0.2% imidacloprid, a systemic insecticide that moves through the plant from root to tip, safeguarding every part of your plant from within. Gentle on plants and safe for use around pets, it offers weeks of continuous internal protection without harming your garden's beauty.
Application is simple—just shake the granules around the base of your plants and water thoroughly. One 6-pound container covers 48 medium-sized roses or shrubs, or up to 288 square feet of garden bed. With each use, you're setting the stage for lush, vibrant blossoms and thriving foliage that lasts.
Targets a wide range of pests including adelgids, black vine weevil larvae, borers (roundheaded and flatheaded), lacebugs, mealy bugs, sawfly larvae, whiteflies, and more. Ideal for both new and established plantings.

Harmful to Bees 0 people found this helpfulThey neglect to tell you specifically that acetate is toxic to bees. Otherwise, it works well. Personally, I like bees so I no longer use Bonide Rose Shield Systemic.
