This is because phosphorus encourages flowering.However, complete fertilizers sold for flowering plants (including roses and bulbs) such as 15-30-50 or 10-30-20 contain higher amounts of phosphorus (the second number) than nitrogen or potassium and are often labeled as “blossom or bloom booster”.A high-phosphorus fertiliser contains a larger proportion of phosphorus compared to other nutrients. The NPK ratio, which stands for Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium, is typically displayed on fertiliser packages. A high phosphorus fertiliser would have a higher middle number.
