    Q
    Can I use Evergreen and Miracle-Gro Acid Loving Plant Food 28-10-10 on foxglove and lavender?
    A

    We would not recommend using Miracle-Gro Miracid Plant Food on either lavender or on foxglove. Lavender prefers nutrient poor soils, and too much fertilizer can prevent blooming. Foxgloves also can suffer from over-fertilization. You can use a balanced plant food for them such as Fertilome All Purpose Water Soluble Plant Food.
