Ludwig’s Vigorosa by Kirchhoffs (4.5kg) | Multi-purpose Plant Fertilizer.
Ludwig’s Vigorosa by Kirchhoffs is an organically enriched, multi-purpose granular fertilizer (5:1:5 (25)) formulated for South African gardens. It delivers balanced nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium plus calcium, magnesium, sulphur, humic acids and trace elements (iron, boron, manganese, molybdenum and zinc) to support strong stems, healthy leaves and abundant flowering.
The 4.5kg tub includes a 30g measuring cup and is suitable for regular monthly feeding from August to April (stop earlier in colder regions). Sprinkle evenly around the plant and water in well. It is designed to be low-risk for birds, wildlife, pets and people when used at recommended rates, with no harmful toxic residues and no secondary poisoning. Do not use it as an aquatic fertilizer.
What Ludwig’s Vigorosa can be used for:
- Roses (including established bushes, miniatures and climbers)
- Ornamental flowers and flowering shrubs
- Vegetables and edible gardens
- Lawns
- Groundcovers
- Container and pot plants
It is especially valued for roses because the 5:1:5 ratio plus humic acids supports both vegetative growth and flowering while helping soil structure and nutrient availability.
Why gardeners choose this fertilizer:
The formulation supplies the major nutrients plants need for leaf and stem growth (nitrogen), root development (phosphorus) and flowering plus stress tolerance (potassium), together with secondary nutrients and carbon from humic acids. Apply 30g per average rose bush every 4–6 weeks during the growing season; use half that amount on newly planted or miniature plants. Always water thoroughly after application.
