Hello, Thought I would add this to the information bank. Bayer also has a 'Rose and Flower' version, half strength to 'Tree and Shrub Insect Control'. I also found a Bayer product with Imidacloprid in a stick or stake form which is slow release. All these products are on sale at 'Orange County Farm Supply' in Orange, California (near Angel Stadium and the Pond). Apex slow release fertilizers are also sold there at half the cost of Osmocote (for the same size package- 50# bags.).
