Tree & Shrub Fertilization
At JPS Tree Service, we provide professional tree and shrub fertilization services using slow-release nutrient solutions designed to restore balance, improve resilience, healthy growth throughout the year.
Do My Trees & Shrubs Need Fertilization?
In natural forest environments, trees thrive because the soil is constantly enriched with organic matter like fallen leaves, decomposing wood, and natural ground cover. Trees and shrubs must compete with lawns, landscaping plants, and compacted soil .
Fertilization becomes especially important when:
- Trees show slow or uneven growth
- Trees show slow or uneven growth
- Newly planted trees struggle to establish roots
- Soil is compacted or low in organic matter
Slow-Release vs Fast-Release Fertilizer: What’s Better?
Both fertilizer types serve a purpose, but slow-release fertilization offers long-term benefits for trees and shrubs.
- Fast-release fertilizers dissolve quickly, providing immediate nutrients — but they require precise timing and can increase the risk of runoff or nutrient loss if applied incorrectly.
- Slow-release fertilizers work with natural soil conditions, gradually releasing nutrients based on moisture and temperature. This provides consistent feeding over time without stressing the plant.
