Espoma® Organic® Tree-Tone® 6-3-2

NPK Ratio: 6-3-2

• N (Nitrogen) - 6%: Nitrogen promotes vigorous growth and lush, green foliage. It is essential for the production of chlorophyll, helping trees achieve healthy, vibrant leaves.

• P (Phosphorus) - 3%: Phosphorus is important for strong root development and flowering. It aids in energy transfer and is critical for the overall health of the tree.

• K (Potassium) - 2%: Potassium enhances tree health by regulating water uptake and nutrient transport. It improves disease resistance and encourages overall vitality.

For Use On:

All fruit, shade, and ornamental trees, such as: Apple, Ash, Aspen, Buckeye, Catalpa, Cherry, Plum, Chestnut, Cottonwood, Cypress, Elm, Hawthorn, Filbert, Honeylocust, Locust, Maple, Pear, Poplar, Sweetgum, Sycamore, Walnut, Willow.

When to Use:

• Spring: Feed early in the spring before growth starts.

• Fall: Feed after leaf drop but before the ground freezes.
  Note: Never apply fertilizer to frozen soil.

How Much to Use:

The amount of Tree-tone required is determined by the caliper (diameter) of the trunk. For medium and large trees, this should be measured at a point 4 feet above the ground.

How to Apply:

• Small Trees: Sprinkle the fertilizer on the ground over an area equal to the root spread. This can be estimated as the area under and slightly beyond the branch spread.

• Large Trees:

  • Make holes 2 to 3 inches in diameter, 2 to 3 feet apart, and 12 to 18 inches deep under the drip line (outer edges of branches) of the tree using an auger.

  • Divide Tree-tone evenly among the holes and fill the remainder of the holes with soil.

  • Water thoroughly.
