I use 24-8-16 on my basjoo and any tropical you want nice leaves on. But I've found for inground plantings, the cheapest brand of lawn fertilizer works just as well. They're usually like 24-0-0 or something similar. Just don't use weed and feed by accident instead, that doesn't work NEARLY as well....lol...
