Lincoln’s mature trees add tremendous value to properties and create the character that defines our tree-lined neighborhoods. Annual fertilization provides consistent nutrition for healthy growth and stress resistance. You’ll notice improved leaf color and density, stronger root systems and branch structure, better disease and pest resistance, and enhanced ability to withstand drought and extreme weather. Even healthy-looking trees benefit from proper nutrition, maintaining their vigor and preventing decline before it becomes visible. Our custom on-site estimates assess your specific plants and conditions, ensuring the right treatment plan for your landscape. Fertilization works perfectly alongside our landscape weed control and lawn care programs for complete property health.

We provide tree and landscape fertilization services from March through November, anytime your trees are leafed out and actively taking up moisture. Spring applications support vigorous leaf development when nutrient demand is highest. Summer treatments maintain healthy growth when adequate soil moisture is present. Fall fertilization helps trees store nutrients for winter and supports continued root growth even after leaves drop. Lincoln homeowners receive text or email notification the day before their scheduled service. Applications cannot be performed when ground is frozen, as soil penetration is impossible under those conditions.

Fertilization supports healthy, vigorous growth but won't make trees grow unnaturally fast. What you'll see is:
The goal is healthy, sustainable growth—not forced rapid growth that can weaken plants.
We recommend annual fertilization for most trees and landscape plants. Here's why:
During your site estimate, we'll assess your specific plants and recommend the optimal fertilization schedule.
Yes! While lawn fertilizer provides some surface nutrients, it doesn't reach the deep root zone where trees feed. Our deep-root injection delivers nutrients 8-12 inches deep, exactly where tree roots can access them. Trees in lawns still benefit significantly from dedicated tree fertilization.
Even healthy-looking trees benefit from fertilization. Just like a healthy person still needs good nutrition, healthy trees maintain their vigor with proper feeding. Benefits include:
Our liquid fertilizer is applied below ground level through injection. Once applied, it's immediately absorbed into the root zone. No need to wait to be in the lawn after the application.
Fertilization can help stressed or declining trees recover by providing the nutrients they need to strengthen their defenses. However, it's not a cure for disease or severe damage. During the site assessment, we'll evaluate the tree's condition and provide honest recommendations. Some trees may need additional treatments (such as disease management or pest control) or may be too far gone to save.
Yes. We will concentrate the root injections on the edge of the rootball and just outside of the root ball to promote root spread.
