Time to Fertilize!!!!

It's that time of year again!  Time to Fertilize!

Make sure you remember to fertilize your palms now that the warmer weather has arrived!  Follow the tips below for optimal fertilization.

• Slow release or delayed release is better and safer than rapid release.  Slow formulas cost more but are better.   
• Get a fertilizer that has "microelements", things such as magnesium,  etc.
• Don't use too much; follow directions

• Never fertilize on dry soil
• The most common mistake is fertilizing on dry ground or using too much.
• Find a fertilizer that works well for you and stick with it. Fertilizing is one of the most important aspects of palm tree care and growers should stick to a system that works for them. 
• Always mulch or top dress the soil where possible.  It improves the quality of your soil and conserves water.
