Hello
I bought some 6 foot laurels a few weeks back in pots.
We have been unable to plant them, and have had to leave them in their
pots. We
have been watering them regularly and hopefully should get them
in the ground
within the next few weeks.
Can anyone give me advice on a plant food to keep them healthy before
planting?

thanks for you help

If they were mine, I would water them at the base with Miracle-Gro, because
that is fast-acting, and gets to the roots fast.

But do you really want to encourage growth on potted bushes that are
awaiting transplanting?  And if it's kalmia latifolia, wouldn't you
want Miracid or another acid fertilizer?
