TREE FERTILIZER SERVICE

Trees planted in urban or suburban areas need seasonal fertilization to supplement their nutrient intake because they are not planted in the lush forest-like environment they came from. If you have trees in your front or backyard they require species-specific fertilizer service at various intervals to avoid nutrient deficiency, aid healthy growth and minimize the threat of tree disease.Proper fertilization can also save a stressed or damaged tree. Many seemingly lost plants can be restored to health with nutrient supplements, and tree disease can actually be reversed when combined with proper trimming, pruning, and maintenance/

There are two different types of tree fertilizer; inorganic and organic fertilizer.Organic fertilizers are made from natural sources including plants, animals, and minerals. Inorganic fertilizers are man-made and synthesized in a laboratory. Your trees may need one or the other, but sometimes both depend on the tree species and environmental factors. If it’s a fruit tree we highly recommend sticking with organic fertilizer to avoid any food contamination.

Deep root feeding your trees with species-appropriate fertilizer makes them more disease-resistant and helps them grow a fuller canopy. Fertilizer also encourages lush foliage and makes the plants less vulnerable to insect infestations.

Trees that are malnourished, like humans, appear thin and their growth may be stunted. Instead of sprouting many branches around the circumference a nutrient-deficient shrub or tree will have sparse limbs with thin foliage and leaves.
