Dylancgc,

I bought mine through Drs. Foster and Smith and they were great. I put them in the pots in the spring when I clean up/divide/etc and that is pretty much it - until the following year. The spikes are made by Laguna - http://www.petstore.com/ps_ViewItem-idproduct-HG20910.html and they are great. I generally have flowers from Spring right through until Fall.

I have found that if I use the monthly fertilizer tabs, my intentions are good early on, however as the ponding season goes on, I don't do any further fertilizing. The once a year fertlizer spikes were apparently made with people like myself in mind.
