You can use bone meal if you are having a flowering problem and need to increase the phosphorous. Yellowing can be caused by several things, see the article below. If you haven't fertilized at all this year, you can add a balanced fertilizer such as a slow release 10-10-10 or 20-20-20. .
But the yellowing may not be fertilizer related. It could be too much or too little water, high temperatures, too much sun, or pests. Try to determine the cause before trying to fix it.
