This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Power up your spring garden with the Ferti-lome Gardener's Special Granules Plant Food in a convenient 3.25 lb bag. This all-purpose, non-organic granular fertilizer delivers a balanced 11-15-11 N-P-K blend designed to support a wide range of plants—from flowering perennials to vegetables, shrubs, and container specimens. The dual-release formula combines fast-acting nutrients with slow-release feeding, giving your plants an immediate green-up and sustained nourishment over time.

Why this formula stands out

  • Balanced nutrition—NPK 11-15-11 provides robust leafy growth (nitrogen), strong root development and flowering (phosphorus), and resilient overall health (potassium) for an all-purpose plant food.
  • Fast + slow release—A two-stage release profile means quicker visible results and ongoing feeding, reducing the need for frequent applications.
  • Spring-focused—Specifically formulated for spring use to support new growth, blooms, and healthy establishment as the growing season kicks off.
  • Easy, bagged application—Every 3.25 lb bag is ready to spread over up to 200 sq ft, making it simple to feed multiple beds, borders, and containers in one go.
  • Versatile for all-purpose use—Suitable for a broad spectrum of garden plants, including flowers, vegetables, herbs, and ornamental shrubs.
  • Not for hydroponics—Designed for soil-based gardens and traditional growing beds to maximize soil nourishment and root uptake.

How to use

  1. Identify the area to feed (up to 200 sq ft with the 3.25 lb bag).
  2. Spread the granules evenly across the soil surface for uniform coverage.
  3. Water thoroughly after application to help nutrients begin to release into the root zone.
  4. Reapply as part of your spring feeding routine, following your garden’s ongoing nutrient needs and local guidelines.

Ideal for

  • Garden beds, borders, and vegetable plots seeking balanced, long-lasting nutrition
  • Container plants that benefit from a steady nutrient supply
  • Spring resets where quick green-up and sustained growth are desired

What makes Gardener's Special Granules different

Unlike many single-release fertilizers, this fertilizer’s fast/slow-release combination provides an immediate boost for a quick, healthy start to the season while continuing to feed roots and foliage over subsequent weeks. With a reliable 11-15-11 formulation, you’re equipping your plants with the elements they need for vibrant blooms, strong roots, and resilient growth. For gardeners seeking a straightforward, effective spring feed that covers a broad range of plants in a single bag, this Ferti-lome option delivers measurable results with minimal guesswork.
