Why does Epson Salts make a rose bloom? My mother in law had a rose bush under her Kitchen window for 20 years and it never bloomed once. A neighbor suggested she add some Epson Salt to the soil around the bush. She did, and the thing has been producing flowers every year since. What is there in Epson Salts that encourages growth in the rose bush? Is this treatment good for other plants as well?
