Video Description

In this video, I share how to fertilize trees and shrubs without fertilizer! People are often surprised to hear that I don't fertilize fruit trees in my yard after a few years. This includes fruit trees, landscaping trees, bushes, shrubs and any established perennial. You can give plants all the nutrients they need without buying fertilizers by mimicking the way forests work. The end result is lush, beautiful plants every time in a sustainable system that's fertilizer free! No fertilizer? No Problem! This is how to fertilize fruit trees without it!
