Time to fertilize your trees and shrubs!

Now is the perfect time to fertilize your trees and shrubs!

  • Use 3 spikes for every 5 cm diameter of tree trunk measured at chest height

  • With a plastic driving cap, tap spikes into the ground, spaced evenly at your tree’s dripline (dripline is directly below the ends of the tree’s longest branches)

  • When spike is even with the ground, remove plastic cap and continue to tap spike to at least 5 cm below soil surface

  • NOTE: do not insert spikes closer than 2 feet from the tree trunk (or centre point of shrub). If the dripline is less than 2 feet, insert at 2 feet from the trunk

  • Best results are obtained with 3 yearly applications: spring, mid-summer and fall
