I've been using
Miracid
as a fertiliser for my Azaleas and Japanese Camellias (Sazanka).
But...
I see there are some bonsai people using it for pines, junipers, pomegranates and bougainvilleas.
Acidic loving plants (ph 4.0~6.0) of course benefit from this fertilization, as the product will slowly lower the soil PH, allowing the intake of nutrients, but will "regular" ph plants (6.0~7.5) benefit as well?
I don't have the answer, but I will try in some of mine and we will see.
