Espoma Organic Tree-Tone 6-3-2 Natural & Organic Fertilizer and Plant Food; 36 lb. Bag; Organic Fertilizer for All Trees. Use for Fruit Trees Like Peach & Apple Trees and All Shade Trees

I was introduced to Espoma organic products by a very knowledgeable YouTube contributor & have been an avid user of their product line ever since. Tree-Tone is formulated for evergreen & deciduous trees of all types. Being organic, it’s ingredients are all natural & as such do have a very strong & distinctive smell. It’s definitely not going to be to everyone’s liking, but vastly preferable to a bunch of unknown chemicals being introduced to ones trees. I used a set of small soil augers to bore holes of varying diameter (depending on the tree), around the leaf canopy drip-line. Then following the manufacturers recommended quantities, I poured the fertilizer in each hole. Be sure to water generously once you’re finished, to get the fertilization process started & allow the slow release properties of this product to begin. Expect it to last approximately 4-6 weeks before the product has completely dissolved, depending on rainfall or frequency of irrigation. I have many trees on my property & all have shown positive benefits from the fertilizer. Spectacular spring blooms, vigorous & full leaf growth, & far more new branch shoots than previously. The most impressive though is an 80-year old White Oak that’s 60ft tall & wide, with a trunk that measures 4ft wide at the caliper. This tree has almost certainly never been fertilized before & traditionally has always been one of the last trees to fully leaf-out in my neighborhood. So I used approximately 160lbs of Tree-Tone to fertilize this majestic Oak, very early in Spring. The results have been incredible, & it has fully leafed-out nearly 3 weeks earlier than usual, & the tree is showing signs of plenty of new, vigorous growth. Trees of this size only need to be fertilized every 3-4 years, but they’ll thank you for it when you do. I highly recommend this product, along with their Plant-Tone & other fertilizers in their lineup.

great love it!

This is the best fertilizer I have ever used. Our newly planted trees are growing like I have never seen before.

This product was working well on my trees. I saw a spurt of healthy growth soon after application. The product is easy to work with and the instructions were easy enough to understand. I also watched a helpful YouTube video that an independent person uploaded. I used an auger on my drill to make holes along the drip line of several trees. The product has a strong odor similar to chicken poop. This is where the trouble began. I made the mistake of only making the holes about 6” deep, so there wasn’t much room to then cover the holes up properly with dirt. The smell attracted a raccoon who dug up every last hole, eating the fertilizer and making a big mess. Do yourself a favor. Make the holes a foot deep and pack plenty of soil back over the hole.

Use this on my fruit trees. Seems to work well. But you have to apply it earlier because it is a slow release. Still going to be the second time I'm using it see how the plants and trees act to it the second time around.

Tree Tone was recommended to me years ago by a horticulturist and I’ve been a die-hard fan since. It has a pretty potent smell to it, but it truly helps grow our trees like nothing else I’ve ever used. All of their fertilizers are top shelf, that’s why most high end nurseries carry it.

Arrived on time and intact despite the weight. We followed the easy directions and have seen our trees noticeably improve this summer, despite the heat and dry weather. We wish we'd known about this years ago!

Several days after using it we finally got blooms on our pear tree even though neighbors bloomed a couple weeks ago, coincedence or fertilizer you decide. We did also got a bumper crop of peaches least yr after using treetone when we had not got 1 peach in 2 prior yrs since we bought the house.
