Deep Root Fertilizing

Most trees and shrubs benefit from fertilizing once or twice a year, typically in spring and fall. Thinning cedar hedges, weak-looking shrubs or leaves losing their colour are common signs of a nutrient deficiency.

Revitalize Your Trees & Shrubs with Essential Nutrients

Are you cedar hedges looking thinner than you remember? Do you find that they don’t seem as green as when they were younger? Are your trees and woody shrubs looking weak or off colour? All of these can be signs that your soil is lacking the necessary nutrients it needs to allow your trees and shrubs to thrive.

In the urban environment we rarely allow the soil to “recharge” itself by letting the organic material that falls onto it to just decompose as it would naturally. We remove the fallen leaves, sticks and lawn clippings to keep things looking neat and tidy; however, this does rob your soil of the nutrients it needs. By using fertilizers we replace those lost nutrients and give your trees and shrubs access to the essential minerals they need to thrive.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I schedule deep root fertilization for my trees and shrubs?+

Deep root fertilization is typically recommended once or twice a year, depending on the health of your trees and shrubs. Spring and fall are the best times, as they allow your plants to absorb nutrients before periods of growth or dormancy.

What are the benefits of using liquid fertilizer for my trees and shrubs?+

Liquid fertilizer delivers nutrients directly to the root zone of your trees, shrubs, or hedges with minimal waste. Since it’s injected underground, it avoids overspray on your walkways, driveway, or garden, ensuring that the fertilizer is absorbed efficiently by the target plants and not by the surrounding grass.

How quickly will my plants benefit from liquid fertilizer?+

Liquid fertilizer is quickly absorbed by your trees, shrubs, and hedges, allowing them to access essential nutrients faster than granular fertilizers, which need to leach through the soil. This rapid absorption helps promote healthier growth sooner.

How can I tell if my trees and shrubs are lacking nutrients?+

If your cedar hedges are thinning, not as green as they used to be, or if your trees and woody shrubs appear weak or off-color, these may be signs that your soil lacks the necessary nutrients. Proper soil nutrition is essential for healthy plant growth.

Is Hedge King insured?+

Yes Hedge King is fully insured. We have a claim free history and a copy of Hedge King's insurance is available for review at anytime.

Is deep root fertilization safe for my lawn and surrounding plants?+

Yes! Since the fertilizer is injected directly into the root zone, there is no risk of overspray onto your lawn, driveway, or garden beds. This targeted approach ensures that nutrients are delivered precisely where they are needed, minimizing waste and maximizing plant health.

How long does it take to see results from deep root fertilization?+

You may start noticing improvements in your trees and shrubs within a few weeks to a few months, depending on the plant's growth cycle. Increased leaf vibrancy, healthier foliage, and stronger root development are common signs of improvement.

Highly recommend. Moved into a new house with cedar hedges that looked like they haven't been trimmed in years. One side was being completely strangled by vines. Hedge king gave us a very well laid out and detailed quote. They showed up on time, and exceeded all expectations. The hedges look incredible. Very kind, professional, and hardworking crew. What we thought would be an impossible job, to amazing looking hedges! Thank you!

I was very happy with the excellent job the team did on trimming my large cedar hedge and removing some straggly branches at the top of a tall juniper. They turned up on time, answered any questions that I had, and cleaned up everything efficiently. It was a pleasure dealing with everyone on the crew and in the office. See you next year!

This is the third time we have had Hedge King trim our hedge and we have used them for removal of trees. As always they did an excellent job, the crew was friendly, courteous and hard working! We were informed of when they were coming and also the change in schedule due to the snow. Cleanup was excellent and the hedge looks really great again! We are very pleased and highly recommend Hedge King.
