How Do You Fertilize A Japanese Maple Tree?
Japanese maples have been cultivated for centuries and can be a lovely addition to your landscape. They are native to Korea as well as Japan, and offer a number of different leaf shapes and colors ranging from bright green in the spring to bright red in the autumn. Japanese maples can thrive in either the ground or containers and generally grow slowly. Well-drained and acidic soil is very important, along with healthy and fertilized soil. If you are not lucky enough to live in an area with rich soil, you will need to fertilize. Feed a young Japanese maple in the spring or summer beginning with its second year. If it’s in the ground, fertilize the young maple once a year. If you have very rich soil, you may not need to fertilize at all. On the other hand, if you have very poor soil, you may need to fertilize twice a year. If the maple is in a container, you may want to fertilize more frequently because nutrients tend to wash out of containers. Sprinkle an all-purpose slow-acting granula
