Palm Tree Fertiliser
Palm trees respond well to fertiliser with better quality foliage, stronger fronds, and a much healthier and brighter looking plant. Correct nutrition for the tree is important while it is establishing and also during the active growth periods (spring and summer). The Plant Company Palm Tree fertiliser has been specifically blended to give 12-months of continuous nutrition and give the tree an initial boost with all right nutrients. Other palm tree fertilisers on the market typically just give the quick boost and require repeated applications to be effective. The Plant Company Palm Fertiliser is applied at one handful (one cup) spread evenly around each tree (ideally in early spring) just once per year. When planting a Palm, mix one-third of a handful into the soil at the bottom of the hole and apply another two-thirds of a handful to the soil surface around the tree. Water in and wash any fertiliser off the fronds. Do not drop fertiliser in the bottom of the hole without mixing in as this will cause root burning. This fertiliser blend is suitable for all types of Palms that are planted outdoors and should not be used for Palms grown in a container. Use The Plant Company Indoor Plant Fertiliser for container grown Palms. One kg of fertiliser will adequately fertilise 12 trees for one year. Double rates can safely be used on large specimens or where you think fertility is low.
