Like other plants, it is important for trees to be properly fertilized so they can get the nutrients they need to grow strong and healthy. Trees that are properly nourished can better resist insects, diseases, stress, and drought and other severe weather conditions. It is beneficial for trees to be fertilized at least twice each year; once in the spring and once in the fall. Fertilizing your trees in the spring will help them get the nutrients they need to be healthy during the growing season and fall fertilization prepares the trees for dormancy in the winter.
Hendricksen Tree Care provides tree fertilization in Deerfield, IL to fertilize trees on residential and commercial properties. Our arborists will use fertilizer blends that are best for your specific trees and shrubs and the time of year of the application. We will also determine the best type of application to use with your trees.
Tree Fertilization Methods
We can apply tree fertilization with one of two methods: direct injection and soil injection. We will decide which method is best for your property based on the type of trees in your yard. Our arborists will also determine the proper blend of micro and macro nutrients to fertilize with depending on the type of tree and its condition.
- Direct injection: Direct injection is the method in which fertilizer is injected directly into the vascular system of the trees. This allows the tree to get nutrients from the fertilizer without competing with nearby trees and shrubs. This method is typically used for trees that need a significant amount of nutrients.
- Soil injection: With this method, fertilizer is injected int the soil near the tree’s root system using a special tool. The fertilizer is injected below the compact soil where the tree roots can get the nutrients without competing with the grass roots.

Review by Pavlin R. Panayotov
”I have a tree in the yard of a home that I own and rent that I thought needed to be removed. The branches were hanging over the neighbor’s property and I did not want my tree to cause any damage. One tree removal professional was ready to remove the tree, but I called Hendricksen Tree Care for a second opinion. Bob Hendricksen came to my property and told me it is best to not remove the tree. He said that he could provide treatment for the tree that will help it live strong for another 10 years. He also mentioned that removing the tree could lead to issues with water pooling in the yard. Instead of removing the tree, Hendricksen Tree Care provided treatment to help it stay strong and healthy.
I want to thank Bob Hendricksen for providing treatment to save the tree, even though the treatment service cost less than removing it. His passion for providing excellent tree care saved my tree!”
