At Maier Tree & Lawn, our fertilization program addresses the source of potential problems with your trees and shrubs. The two greatest stresses on urban trees are soil compaction and water stress. With our root care program, however, these problems can be solved.
Urban soils are often compacted. This makes it difficult for water and oxygen to get to the tree root zone (3 to 18 inches deep). When roots don’t have room to grow, trees and shrubs miss opportunities to absorb water and nutrients. They become drought stressed, undernourished, and susceptible to many other secondary problems.
Our fertilization program adds several important ingredients to the soil to help combat soil compaction and water stress. By making sure the tree can access the nutrients it needs, we ensure that your entire landscape’s ecosystem will stay healthy and efficient.
