Abstract
This invention relates to aqueous plant treatment compositions that improve the environmental experience of the consumer and industrial grower while contributing to the health of plants. Compositions of the invention include mixtures of naturally sourced fragrances, plant sourced micronutrients, naturally derived oils, surfactants, emulsifying agents, and odor sequestering agents. Compositions are combined as solutions or suspensions that may be disposed onto soil, plant foliage, or onto dried cellulosic particles to reduce or eliminate the malodors of plant treatment or nourishment, such as from organic fertilizers or from pesticides, while imparting a pleasant post treatment fragrance.
