Deep-Root Fertilization and Feeding of Trees

Overview of the service

Here at LawnSavers, we believe in giving our plants the royal treatment, and that’s where our Deep-Root Fertilization Service steps in. It’s often called “Deep Root Fertilization”, or “Deep Root Feeding”, the important part is what’s in the solution and that it is placed directly into the root zone for maximum benefit to your trees and shrubs!

Picture a day spa for your trees and shrubs, except instead of facials and massages, we’re providing high-pressure soil injections packed with nutrients. This service isn’t a light surface feeding with granular slow-release fertilizers; it’s a nutritious boost right where your trees and shrubs need it most – their root systems.

This treatment helps your plants survive less-than-ideal conditions like poor soil or poor planting. It also helps them recover from stress caused by insects, disease, or drought, all of which can rob your green companions of their health.

Who needs Deep Root fertilizing injections?

Wondering if your trees or shrubs need this VIP treatment? Well, our Deep-Root Fertilization Service is perfect for customers whose trees or shrubs are not reaching their full potential or are living in nutrient-deficient soil conditions. This service can also be a game-changer for those who want healthier, sturdier growth for their green friends and wish to increase their resistance to disease and insects.

How often should I feed my trees and shrubs?

Just like your annual check-up, this service needs to be performed only once each year, either in Spring or Late Fall. We provide the service while a plant’s root system is storing and preparing reserves for bud production.

The results? Faster Green-up, better colour, increased root growth, more vigorous and healthy growth, more blooms, and increased insect and disease resistance. Now that’s what we call a whole host of benefits!

What are the Benefits of Deep Root Fertilization?

The strength and vitality of your plants get a significant boost with our Deep-Root Fertilization Service. You can expect improvements in colour, root growth, vigour, and resistance to insects and diseases. Not to mention more blooms, stronger stems, and overall healthier trees and shrubs.

What is the Process for Deep Root Feeding trees?

Our trained Plant Health Specialists use a truck-mounted system to deliver a series of high-pressure soil injections into the root system of your plants. And we don’t skimp on the good stuff; we use only the highest quality, slow-release fertilizer solution.

How much does Deep Root Feeding Cost?

We believe in affordable quality, with individual trees starting from $95 each (minimum, depending on size). Our Full Service starts at $185 and up for smaller properties up to 40′ wide, with an average depth and an average amount of trees and shrubs.

What does the process for Deep Root Fertilization look like?

LawnSavers uses a truck mounted system that injects a proprietary blend of nutrients and root invigorators through a specialized device under high pressure.
We inject in a grid system underneath the tree, concentrating on the feeder roots that are primarily near the drip line of the tree.
These holes can be anywhere from 6″-10″ below ground and will penetrate even further under the high pressure depending on the soils compaction.  (it even helps to aerate your trees root system with annual treatment.)
Picture note: In the picture above you will notice the grass benefitting in small spots surrounding the holes where the nutrients were injected.  These will dissipate within weeks and regular mowing.
