Spring is Here! Time to Fertilize!

It is officially spring and while people have camping, barbecue, and summer fun on the mind we here at Flatirons Arbor Care are gearing up for the growing season for your trees and shrubs. Fertilization is an essential component to keeping your trees growing vigorously and fending off pests and disease. Our fertilizer mixture provides several benefits to your trees and shrubs. It provides the necessary nutrients to keep your trees green and growing. It contains humic acid which assists in amending Colorado’s clay soils by binding to clay particles and forcing them apart making more micro and macro capillary space which allows water, nutrients and oxygen to be available in the root zone (which is essential to the health of your trees). It contains mycorrhizae, a beneficial fungus that attaches to the roots of your tree and helps increase water and nutrient uptake. There are many other ingredients to our fertilizer that are extremely beneficial but if I were to lay them out here I would be writing until the end of the season. Call today and schedule a free consultation to give your trees the love and care they deserve.
