Now is the Time Deep Root Fertilize Your Trees and Shrubs

Deep Root Fertilize Your Trees and Shrubs

Deep root fertilization is the preferred and most effective method for fertilizing your trees and shrubs on the Front Range, especially before winter hits. Through this process a liquid, time-released fertilizer is pressure injected in a grid pattern into the root zone of the tree or shrub. Well nourished trees and shrubs have better resistance to disease, insect attack, and drought. Deep root fertilizing can help keep your trees and shrubs healthier, promoting the wonderful foliage that adds beauty and value to your property.

Stone is a great hardscape product for the Front Range garden. The 3 most popular types of stone work for landscapes include stone stairs, stone walkways, and stone patios.

Stone stairs are not only functional, but can add the illusion of more depth to your landscape because of the layers, and appear like a larger area. Stone stairs can also create a more formal entryway to an outdoor living space.
