ColorStar is the best fertilizer I have ever used. Talk about instant gratification. If you want to see results from a fertilizer you MUST use this stuff. I've been using ColorStar for about 20 years and will not use any other fertilizer for blooming plants.

As the office manager of Roland's Nursery and Landscape in Waxahachie, I have ample opportunities to experiment with the variety of fertilizers that come our way.
I started as a grower at Greenwood Nursery years ago and was pleasantly surprised by the results your ColorStar produced.
As an experienced grower, i can attest to the great results I have had with your product. Your rep for this area, Madelyn, has been a true asset in keeping me apprised of the new products your company provides. Thank you for sending us someone as knowledgeable as Madelyn is.
Working in the garden center industry, we see a lot of different plant foods. The best by far is ColorStar. We strongly recommend it to our customers and use it in our production for annual color. ColorStar has made our plants beautiful and continues to be one of our top sellers! Thank you Nelson Plant Foods and ColorStar!
Love this product! It's so multifunctional and I enjoy the ease of being able to apply it to everything that blooms.
