BGI Introduces Three New ‘GAIN’ Plant Foods: Grow & Gain, PalmGain, and HibisGain!
Specially formulated for the distinct blooming and growing needs of hibiscus, palms, and a concentrated all-purpose liquid fertilizer.

BOUGAIN® 6-8-10 Plus Minors
Thank you for making BOUGAIN® the best-selling bougainvillea fertilizer in the country!
Not only is BOUGAIN® formulated to dramatically increase blooms, it addresses the bougainvillea’s Achilles heel – their thin and brittle root system. Ten years of research and testing led to perfecting our specialty plant food that dramatically increases blooms, strengthens roots, increases color vibrancy in both foliage and bracts, and produces an all-over healthy bougainvillea.
We focused on the customer, listening to the issues and challenges of both the weekend gardener and professional landscaper, and met those concerns with this quick-release, easy to use fertilizer that is unmatched in quality and functionality. Moreover, our landscape customers use it when installing bougainvillea, but garden centers love our colorful 2 lb. jars and 10 lb. bags for their retail stores as well.

Grow & Gain 10-10-5 Plus Minors
Grow & Gain is a concentrated all-purpose liquid fertilizer particularly formulated for use on all types of indoor and outdoor plants. It is an exceptional fertilizer for trees, shrubs, vegetables, flowering plants, and lawns. The Nitrogen makes plants grow sturdily, mature rapidly, increases foliage and stem growth, and produces rich, dark green foliage. Phosphates encourage root growth, stronger roots, hasten maturity, and increase plant hardiness. Potassium aids in producing flowers and fruits, promotes healthy green lawn grass, and helps plants use water and resist drought, building up plant resistance.
Grow & Gain also contains important chelated micronutrients and organic acids. Chelated minors are more readily available to the plant and not as easily leeched as non-chelated minors. Organic acids help to grow stronger, healthier plants. They increase nutrient absorption, enhance soil structure, increase moisture retention which decreases plant stress, increase caliper size and root growth, and increase fertilizer efficiency. Grow & Gain is very acid (low pH – 1.69) and helps neutralize alkaline water and soil, and unlock iron and other micronutrients – making them available to the plant.
- One (1) Gallon Grow & Gain covers 1600 Square Feet.
- Foliar Feed: Mix ½ tablespoon Grow & Gain to one(1) gallon water. Spray solution onto plant foliage to the point just before run-off.
- Garden Plants, Shrubs, and Vegetables: Apply every 2 weeks. Can also supplement between feedings by spraying Grow & Gain as a foliar feed.
- Trees: Apply monthly during growing season. Can also supplement between feedings by spraying Grow & Gain as a foliar feed.
PalmGain 8-2-12 Plus Minors
Palms, ferns, cycads, ixora, and ornamental plants need ample amounts of nitrogen, potassium, magnesium, iron, sulfur, and other micronutrients to produce lush green growth and vibrant colors. PalmGain 8-2-12 palm fertilizer is the easy way to ensure plants have these meaningful elements.
Feed every 4 to 6 weeks throughout the growing season. In areas where there is a threat of frost, feed every 4 to 6 weeks from February to September. Do not fertilize immediately when planting palm trees. Wait about 4 to 6 weeks after planting when you’re sure adequate soil water content is achieved and risk of transplant shock has passed. For plant beds, apply one full 10lb bag per 500 square feet.

HibisGain 12-6-8 Plus Minors
The key to success with heavy-feeding hibiscus plants is to fertilize lightly and often. Hibiscus should be fertilized at least once a month throughout the growing season, and the schedule should be kept up regularly. Remember that numerous light applications of hibiscus fertilizer are always better than a few heavy applications. See chart for feeding amounts.
HibisGain can be applied directly on top of the soil or mulch. It should be sprinkled evenly under and slightly beyond the spread of the branches. It should be kept off the foliage and well away from the trunk. Do not apply HibisGain to dry soil. Be sure to water the area well before and after fertilizing. Take care to brush or wash fertilizer granules off leaves to prevent leaf injury. For plant beds, apply one full 10lb. bag per 500 square feet.

BOUGAIN® Testimonials

“I have a bougainvillea that I purchased in the summer of 2009. Since I live in Zone 7 (Hardiness Zone Tool), I had to bring my hanging planter indoors for the Winter. When temperatures warmed in my state, I placed my bougainvillea outdoors. While the leaves continued to flourish, I had no blooms. I applied Bougain, and within two weeks, I began to see some growth of buds. It has now been almost 4 weeks since my initial treatment with Bougain, and my neighbor has commented, “It has never looked and bloomed so well”. I’m very happy with your product, and highly recommend.”
- Rose F., First time Bougain user, Anderson, SC
“Bougain really works. I use it for all of my client’s bougainvillea, and the results are pretty amazing”.
- Chuck Richardson, Landscape Resources. Orlando, FL
“It’s hard keeping bougs looking nice in a nursery setting, and I don’t want to spend a lot of money maintaining stock, so I thought I’d give Bougain a try. It’s just like you say… two weeks after application all the foliage and blooms came right back. I’ve had bougs that had gone south restored to their original condition – it looks like it did the day they were delivered. I am a believer!”
- Lee, Orchid Island Garden Center Vero Beach, FL
“The BGI Bougainvillea Magic DVD, and BGI fertilizer, Bougain, has made a drastic improvement to bougainvillea both at my home and on our jobsites.
- Rollin Steele, Project Manager. Dixie Landscape Company
“I think Bougain is the key to our bougainvillea looking so great. After applying Bougain, the blooms come back so big and bright. You can really see the difference between our bougainvillea fed with Bougain, and those at other garden centers not using it. It’s definitely the Bougain working!
-Steve, JSL Garden Center Orlando, FL
“I’ve had bougainvillea that have never flowered until I started using Bougain. I tell all my customers to use this stuff – it’s awesome!”
-Luis Mejer, Landscape Designer/Contractor. Greenworks, Inc. Coconut Grove, Florida
“I have been using Bougain for the past six months, and find it remarkable. The first time I tried Bougain, it was like an explosion; I never saw such thick flowers. Even more remarkable was the increased foliage that pushed out with the flowers. Most trees get weakened by flowering, but with Bougain they get a more balanced diet.
I specifically use Bougain on over half of the Morikami collection.
I had a very weak dying cascade bougainvillea, and since using Bougain, it has become extremely robust. I think the Serrissa, “thousand stars” tree, has gone to a million stars. I am not exaggerating at all, it is wonderful. That is why I use so much of it, and use it so prodigiously on so many trees.”
-Dick Miller, Volunteer Curator of the Bonsai Exhibit at the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens, President; Editor of Gulfstream Bonsai Association, Inc. & Gulfstream Journal of Tropical Bonsai.
“It’s awesome. I’ve had nothing but positive feedback from my customers. They keep coming back for more!” - Katya, Delray Garden Center
“The improved results from BOUGAIN® are breath-taking and truly priceless. We purchase BOUGAIN® for every bougainvillea we install because we know our clients will be satisfied each and every time.”
- Kelsey Aiello, Aiello Landscape
“My customers are hooked on BOUGAIN®. I also use it around my shop, and people are always asking me what I use to keep my bougies blooming.” - Ed, Nu Turf Lawn & Garden of Margate
“Some of our customers come in just to purchase BOUGAIN®, and wind up leaving with more than one jar. We think it’s wonderful, and sell a lot of it.”
- Deanna, Giverny Gardens
