Tree Fertilization Service for Health and Longevity
Trees in a forest habitat receive natural fertilization as leaves, twigs, and other organic materials decompose. However, trees in a groomed or landscaped setting need special attention. Every tree has unique nutritional needs, based on health, location, soil content, and other factors. Professional fertilization from JB Tree Care & Landscaping provides the right nutrients at the right time for abundant growth and longevity.
Benefits of Professional Fertilization
The ideal times for fertilization are the spring (preparing for growing season and summer) and fall (recovery/replenishment). Benefits of fertilization service include:
- Support new, flush growth during the spring growing season
- Helps tree leaves green and stay vibrant throughout summer
- Provides essential nutrients (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium) for health and fighting infection
- Delivers nutrients via injection below turf grass roots where trees need/benefit the most
- Nitrogen helps promote fine root growth for better water and nutrient uptake
- Fall fertilization helps recover nutrients lost over summer months

Tree Fertilization FAQs
How do I know if my trees need fertilization?
Look for signs like stunted growth, yellowing leaves (chlorosis), or smaller-than-average leaf size. Our certified arborists can test your soil to determine exactly which nutrients are missing to restore your tree's health.
What is deep root fertilization?
Deep root fertilization involves injecting a high-quality nutrient blend directly into the soil near the root zone. This ensures the tree gets the nutrients it needs without the grass or weeds absorbing them first.
When is the best time to fertilize trees in Minnesota?
Early spring (before leaf flushing) and late fall (after the leaves drop) are the ideal times. Fall fertilization is particularly effective for helping roots survive the harsh Twin Cities winters.
Is tree fertilizer safe for my pets and family?
We recommend keeping pets and children off fertilized areas for at least 24 hours. We can provide more health and safety information during your service appointment.
How often should I have my trees fertilized?
Most mature trees benefit from a professional fertilization once a year, while younger or stressed trees may require more frequent attention to establish a strong root system.
