Enjoy promoting the beautiful growth of trees for a better curb appeal of your property’s landscape. The licensed, insured and bonded arborists at Richard’s Tree Service provide the regular maintenance and solutions you need with deep root fertilization. The process breaks up compact soil, so you can better facilitate a healthy development of root systems over time.

How Does Deep Root Fertilization Work?

Natural forests are often covered with decomposing organic matter, allowing trees to thrive and flourish. A residential or commercial setting may need services like deep root fertilization to mimic those environments with rich, beneficial soil.

It’s great to have fertilization incorporated into your scheduled maintenance. Although, you could schedule the service to remedy yellow or light green leaves from lack of chlorophyll, among other conditions like smaller leaf sizes than normal, dead spots on the leaves, thinning or dying branches and reduced foliage or florals.

When completing deep root fertilization, our professionals typically drill holes 12 to 16 inches deep and 3 feet apart. After filling the spaces with granular fertilizer, the ingredients gradually release into the root zone for about three months.

While a single application can promote better growth, repetition is the key to your trees’ long-term health and well-being.

Top Benefits of Deep Root Tree Fertilization

During deep root fertilization, the tree absorbs the nutrients and transports them to the rest of the tree. Over time, you may notice a growth of thick and vibrant foliage. The aesthetically-pleasing development may include blooms or canopies.

Breaking up the soil reduces compaction and provides better aeration. By recreating a natural nutrient cycle, your tree can maximize its resistance to pests and diseases while preventing damage from frost or sunburns.
