Description
Specialized Orchid Fertilizer for Deep Green Leaves and Reliable Blooming
JaggarCross Orchid Fuel Specialty Fertilizer (8 oz) is a professional-grade, water-soluble fertilizer developed by orchid grower Xavier G. de Loubresse. Formulated specifically for orchids such as Phalaenopsis, Dendrobium, Paphiopedilum, and other species, this complete nutrient blend is designed to promote lush green foliage, steady growth, and consistent flowering.
With an NPK ratio of 13-15-19, Orchid Fuel delivers balanced nutrition along with Calcium and Magnesium, supporting strong plant structure and healthy development. The formula includes a carefully adjusted mix of nitrate, ammonium, and urea nitrogen, providing a nutrient profile better suited to orchids—many of which naturally grow in environments where ammonium-based nitrogen is more available.
This balanced nitrogen approach helps support vigorous growth without excessive stress, while enhanced micronutrient levels—including molybdenum—help maintain healthy leaf color and improve nutrient utilization.
Unlike slow-release fertilizers, this fully soluble blend is mixed with water and applied directly to the growing medium, providing consistent and predictable feeding.
In addition to orchids, this formula is also suitable for specialty plants such as Nepenthes (pitcher plants) and Amorphophallus, where controlled nitrogen forms and micronutrient balance are important for healthy growth.
