Additional Information
Provide plants with balanced, long-lasting nutrition using PolyCote Plus Native Fertiliser, a premium polymer-coated controlled-release fertiliser developed for plants requiring a lower-phosphorus nutrient formulation.
Designed for phosphorus-sensitive plants, Australian natives, advanced container stock and long-term indoor and outdoor foliage plants, PolyCote Plus Native Blend combines essential macro and micronutrients with patented Troforte microbiological technology to support healthy plant growth and development.
The fertiliser features a tough, flexible biodegradable polymer coating that regulates nutrient release over an approximate 12-month period. This controlled-release technology is designed to perform under varying temperatures and osmotic pressure conditions, helping provide a dependable nutrient supply throughout extended growing cycles.
PolyCote Plus gradually releases nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and essential trace elements in proportions closely aligned with their ratios within the granule. This supports uniform nutrient availability and consistent plant development over time.
Its low-phosphorus formulation makes it particularly suitable for plants sensitive to elevated phosphorus levels, while the inclusion of secondary nutrients and trace elements provides a broad nutritional profile for professional horticultural applications.
With a 12-month controlled-release period, this formulation is particularly useful for long-term nursery production, advanced container plants and growing programs where extended nutrient availability and reduced fertiliser application frequency are desirable.
Supplied in a convenient 20kg bag, PolyCote Plus Native Fertiliser is well suited to commercial nurseries, horticulturists, landscapers and growers seeking dependable, long-term plant nutrition.

Controlled-Release Technology
PolyCote Plus uses a biodegradable polymer coating designed to regulate the gradual release of nutrients into the growing medium.
The tough, flexible coating helps maintain controlled nutrient delivery under varying temperature conditions and osmotic pressures, supporting a consistent supply of essential nutrients throughout the release period.
Release Period: Approximately 12 months.
Important: The stated release period is determined under laboratory conditions at 25°C. Actual nutrient release and longevity may vary depending on average soil or growing-medium temperatures and environmental conditions.
