Seasonal Tree & Shrub Fertilization for Year-Round Health

Proper fertilization is essential to keep your trees and shrubs strong, disease-resistant, and thriving in Tennessee’s climate. Our seasonal fertilization program ensures that your plants receive the right nutrients at the right time, promoting healthy growth, lush foliage, and long-term resilience.

Spring Fertilization – As trees and shrubs emerge from winter dormancy, they need a boost of nutrients to support new leaf and root development. Our spring treatment helps plants recover from winter stress, encourages vigorous growth, and enhances flowering potential.

Fall Fertilization – After enduring the summer heat, trees and shrubs can become stressed and nutrient-depleted. Our fall application replenishes lost nutrients, fortifies root systems, and prepares plants for winter dormancy, ensuring they emerge stronger and healthier in the spring.

By following this bi-annual fertilization schedule, we help your landscape stay green, vibrant, and resistant to pests and disease all year long.

Why Do Your Trees & Shrubs Need Fertilization?

Even with healthy soil, trees and shrubs may not receive enough nutrients due to competition from grass, other plants, and environmental factors. Our fertilization program provides the macronutrients and micronutrients your landscape needs to:

Promote Deep Root Growth – Stronger roots mean better stability, water absorption, and long-term health.
Encourage Lush, Vibrant Foliage – Proper feeding leads to fuller, greener leaves and better flowering.
Enhance Disease & Pest Resistance – Well-nourished trees are less likely to suffer from infestations and diseases.
Improve Stress Tolerance – Helps trees withstand heat, drought, and seasonal changes.

Our Deep Root Fertilization Method

At Mid-South Turf Professionals, we use a deep root injection technique to ensure nutrients reach your trees’ and shrubs’ root zones effectively. This method involves:

  • Injecting liquid fertilizer directly into the soil surrounding your plants.
  • Delivering nutrients deep into the root system for fast absorption.
  • Encouraging strong root development and healthier plant growth.

Unlike surface applications, deep root fertilization bypasses barriers like turfgrass and compacted soil, allowing your trees and shrubs to fully absorb the nutrients they need.

Fertilization & Pest Protection: The Perfect Pair

Fertilizing your trees and shrubs is crucial, but pest prevention is just as important. Many tree and shrub health issues arise due to insect infestations that weaken plants over time. That’s why our fertilization program includes preventative insect control treatments, targeting pests such as:

Aphids – Sap-sucking insects that weaken plants and cause leaf distortion.
Spider Mites – Tiny pests that turn foliage yellow and cause premature leaf drop.
Scale Insects – Hard-shelled insects that attach to branches and disrupt nutrient flow.
Bagworms & Caterpillars – Foliage-eating larvae that strip leaves from trees.

By combining fertilization with insect control, we strengthen your plants while keeping damaging pests at bay.

What Fertilizers Do Your Trees & Shrubs Need?

Your trees and shrubs need a specific set of nutrients to thrive

Just like your lawn, trees and shrubs require specific nutrients at the right time of year to stay healthy, grow strong, and resist disease and pests. At Mid-South Turf Professionals, we use a carefully balanced blend of essential nutrients to promote optimal tree and shrub health.

Nitrogen (N) – Encourages Lush Growth & Vibrant Foliage

Nitrogen is the primary nutrient responsible for leaf and stem development, helping trees and shrubs produce dense, vibrant foliage. It also plays a crucial role in photosynthesis, ensuring plants can efficiently convert sunlight into energy. However, too much nitrogen at the wrong time can lead to weak, excessive growth, making plants more vulnerable to disease and stress.

Phosphorus (P) – Strengthens Root Systems & Aids Flowering

Phosphorus is essential for deep root development, ensuring trees and shrubs establish a strong foundation. It also promotes flowering and fruit production, making it particularly important for ornamental and fruit-bearing plants. Since phosphorus aids in early-season energy storage, it is best applied in the spring to fuel healthy growth throughout the season.

Potassium (K) – Improves Stress Resistance & Disease Defense

Potassium helps plants regulate water retention, making them more drought-tolerant and resistant to extreme weather conditions. It also strengthens cell walls, enhancing the plant’s ability to fight off diseases and insect damage. Potassium is commonly applied in the fall, preparing trees and shrubs for winter dormancy by improving their cold tolerance and energy storage.

Micronutrients – Essential for Overall Tree & Shrub Health

In addition to nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, trees and shrubs require micronutrients like iron, magnesium, zinc, and manganese. These elements support chlorophyll production, enzyme function, and plant metabolism. Deficiencies in these micronutrients can lead to yellowing leaves, weak growth, and reduced resilience. Our deep-root fertilization treatments ensure your plants receive a balanced blend of these vital nutrients.

Organic & Slow-Release Fertilizers – Provide Long-Lasting Nourishment

Our organic and slow-release fertilizers ensure that nutrients are delivered gradually over time, preventing nutrient runoff and reducing the risk of over-fertilization. This steady feeding approach promotes consistent, strong growth while maintaining healthy soil conditions.

Fertilization Must Be Applied in the Right Amounts at the Right Time

Applying the wrong nutrients at the wrong time can lead to weak root development, excessive growth, or increased vulnerability to disease and pests. Our expert tree and shrub care specialists carefully analyze soil conditions, plant species, and seasonal timing to create a customized fertilization plan that delivers the right nutrients at the right time for optimal results.

With our professional deep-root fertilization treatments, your trees and shrubs will receive precisely measured nutrients, ensuring healthy growth, stronger roots, and long-lasting beauty.

Questions About Our Tree & Shrub Fertilization Services?

Keeping your trees and shrubs properly fertilized is essential for their long-term health and vitality. Below, we've answered some of the most common questions homeowners have about our professional tree and shrub fertilization services.

Trees and shrubs, like all plants, require essential nutrients to grow strong and resist disease. Over time, soil can become depleted of nutrients due to competition from grass, environmental stress, and poor soil conditions. Fertilization replenishes these nutrients, promoting deep roots, vibrant foliage, and overall plant health.

We recommend fertilizing trees and shrubs twice a year:

  • Spring Fertilization – Provides nutrients for new growth and recovery from winter stress.
  • Fall Fertilization – Strengthens roots and prepares plants for winter dormancy.

Deep-root fertilization is a method that injects liquid fertilizer directly into the soil around your tree’s root zone. This technique allows the roots to absorb nutrients efficiently, bypassing surface competition from grass and weeds.

Yes! A well-nourished tree or shrub is naturally more resistant to fungal infections, pest infestations, and environmental stress. Proper fertilization strengthens the plant’s immune system, reducing the likelihood of diseases like leaf spot, root rot, and powdery mildew.

No, fertilization itself does not attract pests. In fact, healthy, well-fed trees and shrubs are better equipped to resist insect infestations. We also offer preventative pest control treatments as part of our comprehensive tree and shrub care program.

For newly planted trees and shrubs, fertilization should be applied in moderation to encourage root establishment rather than excessive top growth. We tailor our treatments to provide the best nutrients for young plants without overwhelming them.

Our fertilization treatments are carefully formulated to promote healthy, balanced growth. Too much nitrogen at the wrong time can lead to weak, excessive growth, but our deep-root fertilization ensures that nutrients are absorbed gradually and effectively.

While DIY fertilizers are available, they often lack the precise nutrient balance and deep-root delivery needed for optimal absorption. Our professional fertilization service ensures your plants get the right nutrients in the correct amounts at the right time.
