SavATree Customized Lawn Fertilization: The Foundation of a Sustainably Healthy Lawn

Lawn fertilization is essential for establishing and maintaining strong roots, thick grass, and a healthy, green lawn. High quality fertilizers enhance the natural fertility of the soil, and replace the nutrients that have been depleted over the years. That’s why the foundation of every SavATree Lawn Care Program is the consistent, well-timed application of custom-blended nutrients that nourishes your grass by feeding the soil it grows in.

Turfgrass requires a minimum of 16 nutrients for normal growth and development. The exact amount needed will vary by the grass types, soil condition, and climate. Your SavATree arborist and lawn specialist will assess your turf – through laboratory soil tests and a visual inspection of your property — and recommend the optimal feeding regimen for the unique needs of your lawn or commercial landscape.

Regular fertilization will also improve your turf’s resistance to pests and disease by strengthening its tolerance to stress. [Note: Your arborist will recommend specialized treatments when needed to remedy issues that may arise with pests (insect and grub worm), diseases, and weeds (such as crabgrass, buckhorn, and dandelions.) [See our Lawn Care page for a list of these enhancement services.]

Fertilization in Spring, Summer, and Fall Ensures Lasting Results

A professional fertilization program will adjust the fertilizer blend, and the timing of its application, to seasonal growing conditions as well as to the needs of your lawn.

The SavATree lawn fertilization program involves a series of applications that begin in spring. As the warmer months approach, we adjust our blends to help maintain a healthy, lush, green lawn. While spring and summer applications strengthen the growing grass plants, late-season applications provide your lawn with the nutrients it needs to develop a strong root system that will keep it healthy throughout the winter months. This results in dense turf with color that lasts long into the spring.

Which Fertilization Regimen is Right for Your Lawn?

Our SavATree arborists will recommend a Lawn Care Program that includes a fertilization plan that’s the perfect fit for your lawn’s needs and your priorities: You can select among the following Lawn Care Programs:

• Organic Lawn Care. We offer an effective, multi-pronged organic lawn care program to help cultivate a lush, green lawn in the most environmentally responsible way. Our organic program uses ingredients reviewed by the Organic Material Review Institute (OMRI) under the same standards as the production of organic foods. Our treatments consist of organic fertilizers and biostimulants that strengthen roots, and provide carbohydrates and nutrients to help build a thicker, greener lawn.
