  • Deciduous Trees and Shrubs: Maples, oaks, and ornamental species.
  • Flowering Shrubs: Ideal for supporting blooms and the formation of next year's buds.

Dosage and Application

Recommended Dosage:

  • Shrubs: 75 ml (1/3 cup) per 60 cm (2 ft) of plant height.
  • Trees: 500 ml (2 cups) per 5 cm (2 in) of trunk diameter.
  • Cedar Hedges: 125 ml (1/2 cup) per linear metre (for a 1.5 m high hedge).
  • Note: 125 g = 125 ml = 1/2 cup.

Quick Application Method:

  1. Grouped plants: Incorporate the fertilizer into the soil directly under the edge of the branches (drip line).
  2. Single subjects: Distribute the dose into a few holes dug under the edge of the branches, then cover with soil.
  3. Action: Water thoroughly after each application to activate the nutrients.

Botanix Expert Tips

  • Schedule: Stop all fertilization after the end of July to allow woody tissues to harden before the first frost.
  • Hydration: Never fertilize completely dry soil; moisture is key for roots to absorb minerals without burning.

Understanding the Formulation (N-P-K Analysis)

The 15-5-15 balance precisely meets the needs of large specimen plants:

  • Nitrogen (15): Stimulates photosynthesis and intense greening of foliage.
  • Phosphorus (5): Supports the root system and initial flower set.
  • Potassium (15): Strengthens the cellular structure for better resistance to environmental stress.
