Why don’t forest trees need to be fertilized?
Trees in the forest are living in a natural environment. Leaves, branches, and entire trees fall to the forest floor and decompose. This is a continual process. Decomposed organic matter is rich in nutrients. As a result, there is a rich layer of humus occurring naturally on the forest floor providing all the nutrients a tree needs to be healthy.
