Now that everything is in the ground, the next step is keeping the soil alive and feeding these plants while they settle in. Here's what our monthly fertilizing program looks like for your yard and what it costs.
Why Feed a New Planting
The first year matters mostNew plants spend their first year pushing roots out of the nursery soil and into yours. The faster that happens, the faster they handle our heat on their own. What decides how fast is the life in the soil: the fungi, bacteria, and other microbes that break down organic matter and trade nutrients with the roots.
Phoenix soil is naturally low in organic matter. The compost and mulch we put down at planting gave it a good start. Feeding it every month keeps that biology growing so the plants have a steady supply of nutrients instead of feast and famine.
The clumping bamboo on the south walkway is a heavy feeder and fills in a lot faster with consistent feeding. The orange jubilee along the walls and the twisted myrtle screen push more growth and fill in sooner, the cape plumbago by the porch blooms better, and the new mesquites put down stronger roots. Your established mesquites, agave, and potted citrus benefit too.
What the Program Includes
Monthly visits- Monthly organic liquid feeding. Every visit we spray the whole planted area with our organic blend, feeding the plants and the soil biology at the same time.
- Compost three times a year. Fresh compost around the drip line of the trees and closer in on the shrubs, which keeps building organic matter under the mulch.
- A recap video after every visit. You'll get a short video showing what we did and how things look, so you can see the yard filling in month to month.
- A set of eyes on the new plantings. Monthly visits let us catch problems early. If anything looks off with the watering, we'll let you know so Garrett can take a look.
Everything is covered: the orange jubilee along the backyard walls, the mesquite behind the pergola, the twisted myrtle on the north wall, the bamboo on the south walkway, the front yard mesquites, and the cape plumbago along the porch.
