Is bone meal only used for tomatoes?

Bought a package of bone meal and not sure if its only for tomatoes or could it benefit other vegetables?

Bonemeal is great to mix in planting holes wth any type of bulb, such as tulip, daffodil, gladiolus, as well as garlic and onions. I also use it for rose bushes and lilacs.

Some gardeners use bonemeal for peppers too.
