Monrovia
Monrovia Soil Amendment contains three key ingredients that make it ideal for planting and enriching existing garden soil. The mycorrhizae actually enlarge root surfaces, enabling them to absorb nutrients and water, while the compost stimulates biological activity for maximum growth. The Soil Amendment is fortified with slow-release fertilizer that adds extra nourishment during the plants’ transition into the garden. Available in 1- and 2-cubic-foot bags, the amendment benefits the entire landscape as living mycorrhizae spread to other areas of the garden.
