    I agree with Verdun, feed them with a high nitrogen such as chicken manure pellets.

    Ashwoods recommend feeding in September with a Seaweed based fertiliser.

    I have some tomato feed with sea weed extract, would that do. Usually I just chuck on a pile of homemade compost?

    The advice given was actually to feed when the leaves on the x hybridus start to descend and you feed the roots which are then beginning to regrow. This is also the best time to move and divide any of them too.

    So yes to Lyn.

    Edd, that actually made me laugh out loud.  The Pedant in me want to suggest a colon after the word "fertiliser", but that's just me. image
