PETITTI How to Fertilize your Garden in Spring

Early Spring is the perfect time to start fertilizing plants in the landscape. It provides much-needed nutrients as they begin to wake up and put on new growth. You can start feeding in late-March into early-April which will last all the way to mid-summer. Watch this video with Noelle, Horticulturist and Education Director with Petitti Garden Centers, to learn more about what fertilizers we recommend for different types of plants along with the benefits of spring fertilizing. The 4 main fertilizers we recommend for spring fertilizing are Espoma Organic Holly-tone, Plant-tone, Bulb-tone and Bio-tone. Holly-tone is used for evergreens and any acid-loving plants while Plant-tone is used for deciduous shrubs and perennials. We recommend a nice feeding of Bulb-tone for your spring-blooming bulbs such as Daffodils, Tulips, and Hyacinth as their foliage begins to emerge. You can also apply Bulb-tone when you plant summer blooming bulbs like Gladiola and Dahlias. Spring is also one of the best times to add new plants to your landscape once the soil is workable and not soggy. For new plantings, we recommend adding Espoma Organic Bio-tone to the planting hole to help new plant material establish and expand their root system.
