After many years of research and development by Neutrog in conjunction with the Rose Society of SA and a number of professional rose growers, Sudden Impact for Roses was launched in August 2001. Sudden Impact for Roses combines the best of both worlds. Its organic base provides a full range of plant nutrients in a slow release form, whilst the carefully selected water-soluble nutrients have been added to maximise the performance of each application. Sudden Impact for Roses is ideal for all flowering plants except natives and bare-rooted roses.
The balance and ratio of nutrients combined with the very best of raw materials are the secret to the success of Sudden Impact for Roses. The organic raw materials are conditioned utilising a unique composting process and once completed, the water-soluble nutrients are carefully blended into the organic base before being pasteurised and pelleted.
Sudden Impact for Roses is recommended and endorsed by the Rose Societies of South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia and the South West Rose Group of WA along with the National Rose Society of Australia and Heritage Roses in Australia Inc.
Sudden Impact for Roses is used on the 16,000 roses at the Flemington Racecourse Rose Gardens along with the Victoria State Rose Garden, Morwell Centenary Rose Garden, International Rose Trial Garden SA, Old Parliament House Gardens in Canberra, Araluen Botanic Park in WA, and the National Rose Garden at Woolmers Estate in Tasmania along with many others.
