If they are blooming size and outside in the ground I would give them Miracle Grow 15-30-15 to help make more blooms. If they are small and in pots probably something urea free so not to burn them like one of the Grow More brand products.
Not sure which strenghts they come in other than the 6-30-30 that I use but that is for blooms,too.
