Re: HIST: CAT: Rebloom


From: RYFigge@aol.com

Yes to  the question has anyone heard of stirring the soil around rebloomers 
to promote  their activity ---  At least 30 years ago it was suggested that  
the rebloomer plant benefited from "being disturbed"  - even if you couldn't 
move to another site, it would help to just lift the plant and put it back in 
the same spot, sort of  distuurbing the ground around it.  Now I always 
thought the keyword there was the aggravation to the plant -- but maybe there 
was some digging in the nitrogen?!  I think this is a big joke!  I've tried 
it ---BUT   a little TLC like  more water, more fertilizer, is more 
scientific,  also talking to them with threats they'd better rebloom(!)  or 
else the dump heap,  -- but maybe nitrogen goes in with all that on the side. 
 Can't seriously take the gaseous stuff doing that !  Rosalie nr
