Nue-Tree 1-27-0 GAFSA P Tree Planting Fertiliser 25kg is a high-performance fertiliser designed to support optimal root development in newly planted trees, hedges, and shrubs. With an NPK ratio of 1-27-0, this fertiliser is formulated to provide a significant boost of phosphorus, which is essential for promoting strong root growth and early plant establishment. The low nitrogen content ensures that the fertiliser focuses on root formation rather than excessive leaf or top growth, allowing young trees and hedges to establish a strong foundation for future growth.
The GAFSA granules used in this formulation offer a slow-release mechanism, which ensures that the nutrients are released gradually over time, reducing the risk of nutrient leaching and providing a steady source of nutrients for your trees. Suitable for both deciduous and evergreen trees, as well as hedges, this product is ideal for professional landscapers, gardeners, and horticulturists looking for an efficient fertiliser to help establish new plantings.
