Tree & Shrub Fertilization
Your trees and shrubs are a major investment in your property’s curb appeal and value. Unlike lawn grass, trees and shrubs have deep root systems that require a different approach to fertilization.
Why Trees & Shrubs Need Specialized Care
Idaho’s alkaline soils often lack the micronutrients that trees and shrubs need to thrive. Common signs your plants need fertilization:
- Yellowing leaves (chlorosis) — especially common in Idaho’s high-pH soils
- Sparse or stunted growth compared to previous years
- Early leaf drop or poor fall color
- Increased susceptibility to pests and disease
Deep-Root Fertilization
Unlike surface-applied lawn fertilizer, our deep-root injection delivers nutrients directly to the root zone where trees and shrubs can absorb them:
- Bypasses alkaline topsoil that can lock up nutrients
- Reaches the active root zone at 6-12 inches depth
- Provides immediate availability without runoff or waste
- Includes iron and micronutrients specifically for Idaho conditions
What We Treat
Our tree and shrub fertilization service covers:
- Shade trees — maples, oaks, ash, elms, and more
- Ornamental trees — flowering trees, Japanese maples, dogwoods
- Evergreens — pine, spruce, fir, arborvitae
- Landscape shrubs — lilacs, hydrangeas, boxwood, barberry
Residential & Commercial
Whether you have a few backyard trees or acres of commercial landscaping, we can customize a fertilization program for your property. Commercial properties with significant tree and shrub investments especially benefit from regular deep-root feeding to protect and maintain their landscape.
