I got Scotts Turf builder sprayed on our perennial beds by mistake, would this be good or bad for them?

Question:

Answers:
Grass fertilizer has more nitrogen in it rather than phosphorum or potassium. Nitrogen is used by the plant for photosynthesis, so the plant will grow lots of green leaves. If you got too much on the perennials, the nitrogen may burn the plants and/ or kill them. If you want flowers, you will need to wait a couple of months and then you can add some other fertilizer that is something like 5-10-5.

it will make the greenery grow really well but it will not encourage flowering.

I don't think you should worry about it I did it before and nothing happend.

No it should be fine

It depends on how much you sprayed on them. I would just water them to keep the plants from turning brown.
