Description

Contains Rootgrow™, the first and currently the only plant or soil treatment licensed by the Royal Horticultural Society.

After Plant olive tree feed is a biologically active fertiliser suitable for all garden and pot-grown olive trees. The organic feed is rich in amino acids to encourage vigorous, healthy growth with abundant fruiting and dense foliage. Added soil probiotics and mycorrhizal fungi help young trees establish by extending the tree’s root system, increasing uptake of moisture and nutrients.

How does Rootgrow work?

Rootgrow mycorrhizal fungi bond to a plant’s roots, effectively becoming part of its root system. They grow rapidly in search of water and nutrients, and as they're finer than the plant's coarse roots, they're better at reaching them - helping plants thrive in even difficult soils.

In poor sandy soil, they track down scarce nutrients and water, and in dense clay soil they unlock nutrients, acting like a clay breaker. They're great at hunting down phosphorus and potassium for flowering and fruiting, but also thrive on finding trace elements. And they hold onto water like a sponge, giving your plants far better drought tolerance.

How to use:

Apply in spring at the first signs of growth, throughout summer as required and as an autumn top dress. If planting, we'd advise using pure Rootgrow, placed in direct contact with your plant's roots, and only applying After Plant as a follow-on treatment.

Trees in the ground:

Apply 1-2 handfuls (25-50g) around the base of the tree, lightly work into the soil and water well. For larger established trees apply 2 handfuls per square metre under the canopy.

Container trees:

Apply 2-3 handfuls twice yearly. Remove the top 5-10cm (2-4 inches) of soil from the top of the pot and replace with fresh compost once a year, adding 1-2 handfuls when replacing the compost.

Key features:

  • Suitable for all pot and garden-grown olives
  • Naturally enriches soil biology
  • For abundant fruiting and lush foliage
