Bonemeal is an organic (and slow) form of Phosphate, which is required by most plants for root formation. As bonemeal is not readily broken down by water it normally has to be dug into the soil when you want to apply it; for this reason is normally used when you plant new shrubs and trees and very seldom applied to old/ existing plants
