Fertilizer Requirements

Beds:
Most annuals planted in beds don't require a lot of fertilizer. In general, you can fertilize one or twice during the growing season. Overfertilizing may cause damage to the plants. Soil enriched with composte will usually not need additional fertilizer.

Hanging Baskets and Containers:
Because containers have less soil to provide nutrients you will have to fertilize every couple weeks. You may want to used a time released fertilizer for convenience.
