Question
We have quite a few evergreens (which kind I am not sure) and would like to know if sprinkling Hollytone over the decorative stone underneath the trees early spring and early fall adequate enough or should we move back the stone and then sprinkle Hollytone.

Answer
You can sprinkle it over the stones and water in good,
Spring

Trees:
1 lb. of Holly-tone per inch of trunk diameter. Triple the quantity for diameters three inches and over.

Fall
The plants should be given a light feeding in the late fall. Use half the quantities recommended for spring.
