Subsurface Fertilization

Fertilization treatments promote the health of your trees and shrubs. Nutrients and soil amendments are injected directly into the plant’s root zone. Some of the nutrients are utilized immediately. However, the bulk of the fertilizer remains in the root zone for future use, providing for a stable over-wintering and full spring development. In addition to basic fertilizer (N-P-K or nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium), your arborist may recommend a custom blend of organic additives and soil amendments.

  
In addition to replenishing the soil with necessary nutrients and soil additives for continued growth and vigor, fertilization treatments provide these significant plant health care benefits:

• Healthier appearance, growth and flowering
• Soil aeration
• Relief from sources of urban stress (salts, construction damage, “hardscapes”)
• Aids in recovery of declining mature trees
• Repair of damage from drought stress 
 
     
 

Mycorrhizae Root Enhancer
These beneficial fungi live in and around the roots of trees and shrubs, serving as a secondary root system, extending themselves far out into the soil. Mycorrhizae extract nutrients and water from the soil for their host tree while living off the tree’s sugars. Trees with thriving mycorrhizal root systems are healthier and more robust.

Organic Biostimulant
This organic blend of humic and amino acids, North Atlantic sea kelp extract, natural sugars, vitamins and other organic compounds aids in the improvement of soil structure, rooting, and the uptake of N-P-K. It increases plant vigor and chlorophyll production, as well as improves heat and cold tolerance.
