Just like people, trees need proper nutrition to remain healthy and continue to grow. When was the last time you scheduled tree fertilization? If you can’t remember, then it’s probably time.
Here at Guardian Tree Systems we recommend tree fertilization treatments every 16-18 months. The treatments restore important nutrients and make the trees resistant to disease and insect infestation. Bottom line: well-fertilized trees live longer than under-fertilized trees.
However, tree fertilization requires in-depth knowledge of tree care. Too much or too little can harm a tree, and off-the-shelf applications don’t always deliver the best results.
Guardian Tree Systems uses only the highest quality, commercial grade fertilization products. Our arborists will inspect your trees and compare them against local species standards to determine their fertilization requirements.
Here in Lambton County, we’re also mindful of Ontario’s ban on pesticides and insecticides.
Proper fertilization of your trees provides these benefits:
- Promotes good health and longevity
- Encourages growth
- Helps develop a strong structure, especially for young trees
- Aids trees in combating insects and disease, such as Emerald Ash Borer
- Greens up leaves, strengthens canopies
