Down To Earth’s Alfalfa Meal 2-0-1 is an exceptional source of plant-derived nutrients for the garden. It is highly recommended for roses as well as all other vegetables, herbs, flowers and shrubs. Our Alfalfa Meal is derived from sun cured, non-genetically modified alfalfa that is freshly milled to preserve the highest plant nutrient value.
