    I've never used them due to their pretty low NPK values.

    I put a couple of tubs of it on my new long border after the conifers came out, more to improve the soil than for feed. Having said that, the flowers were extreemly good for the two years as I hadn't added any other nutrients to the border. 

    I will probably just add some bonemeal this year,seeing as it was originally a conifer hedge,  or maybe not, I have piled a load of homemade compost on it , I don't believe in putting too much extra into the soil, the ground will take care of itself and rejuvenate what it needs by itself.
