What do Broadleaf products do?
Broadleaf P4 – water storer and soil conditioner While many horticultural companies have now started offering similar products, Broadleaf P4 was (and is!) the pioneer of water-storing polymer technology- and we still lead the way with our top-quality products.
![]() No matter how you describe it, it’s job is the same- to store water in the soil that plants can access directly whenever needed.
Because we only provide the best-quality, specifically designed product, our P4 lasts in the soil for around 5 years with no decline in performance- unlike cheaper products that only last for a few seasons. This means our customers get better value for money, as well as access to expert technical support and advice whenever they need it (and with over 50 years combined experience, we can assist you with almost any query!).
![]() Not only does P4 cut down on watering by approximately 3/4, it also allows your plants to grow with minimal water stress- leading to larger, healthier plants in less time.
A side benefit is that adding P4 to the soil improves the soil structure, providing a more open, aerated soil profile. This reduces water-logging and allows plant roots to grow better.

Broadleaf Root Dip
Utilising much the same technology as Broadleaf P4, Broadleaf Root Dip also absorbs water to release to the plant. However, Broadleaf Root Dip is a powder made up of micro-fine crystals, meaning that when you hydrate it you get a thick soup of tiny gel particles. This makes it ideal for coating the roots of bare-root transplants, as it protects them from desiccation and vastly extends the amount of time transplants can remain out of the ground. By dipping then wrapping the roots, transplants can safely be stored for weeks, with greatly reduced losses compared to untreated transplants. Best of all, Root Dip is very economical- Just 1 kg of powder can treat up to 1300 45-60cm transplants!
