NPK: 21-0.5-6

2.9% nitrate
15.2% as urea
0.49% Phosphorus
0.4% as water soluble
Potassium
Sulphur
Calcium
Magnesium
Iron
Trace elements:
Boron
Copper
Manganese
Molybdenum
Zinc
I have 3 outdoor bonsais, 2 junipers and 1 serrisa. I live in Australia, the fertalizer is slow realese.

That is an unusual NPK value you got there - not sure what your goals are with your trees but this seems to be a very aggressive growth mix
Anyone else have something to add?

I think cut and paste got things out of order. I think Nitrogen belongs with ammonium nitrate.
It looks like 20% nitrogen, 15% phosphorus or potassium and real low for the other. Maybe a photograph?

Yep, little high on nitrogen, but it's ok, since it's osmocote, it's quite safe to use.
