Schultz ACR 14-7-7 Slow Release Plant Food for Azalea, Cameillia & Rhododendron – 3.5 lb

Overview

Schultz ACR 14-7-7 Slow Release Plant Food is crafted for acid-loving plants both indoors and outdoors. It’s an ideal match for azaleas, camellias, and rhododendrons, delivering steady nutrition that supports color, growth, and overall vitality over time. With slow-release nitrogen, the formula nourishes plants gradually, reducing the need for frequent feeding while you enjoy the results in your garden or containers.

Why this formula stands out

The 14-7-7 balance targets key needs: nitrogen for healthy leaf growth and ongoing vigor, plus phosphorus and potassium to support roots and blooms. The product also includes micronutrients that help round out the nutrition your plants rely on during active seasons.

• ACR 14-7-7 provides balanced nutrition for growth and flowering
• Slow-release nitrogen delivers steady feeding over time
• Up to three months of nutrition from a single application
• Contains micronutrients to support flowering and foliage
• No mixing required; ready to use straight from the bag
• 3.5 lb bag offers ample coverage for multiple plants

How it works

The slow-release formula sits in the soil and releases nutrients gradually as water moves through the root zone. This steady delivery helps maintain consistent nutrition without rapid spikes. The inclusion of micronutrients supports both bloom quality and leaf health, particularly for acid-loving varieties.

• Apply around the root zone of established plants
• Water after application to help release nutrients
• Suitable for both containers and landscape beds

Tips for best results

Plan feeding around your watering schedule to maximize nutrient uptake. Avoid applying directly to stems or trunk bases, and consider soil pH management for optimal color and bloom performance in azaleas, camellias, and rhododendrons. Reapply as seasons change to support new growth and flowering cycles.

Who benefits

Gardeners tending acid-loving ornamentals, whether in pots or in the ground, can enjoy a low-effort feeding option that reduces mixing while delivering long-lasting nutrition for months.
