Palms of Katy

We are recommending feeding palm trees that have some green showing in the fronds. New fronds get nourishment from the old fronds, but since the winter killed the fronds there is no food remaining. Consequently we recommend feeding with not only a specific food combination but also some mychorrizal fungae to increase the absorption capacity of the palm roots.

Remember a palm is closer related to grass than a tree, so tree fertiliziers are not appropriate. A grass fertilizer is insufficient in the micro elements. Palms need a great deal of potassium and manganese that is particular low in our soils of Katy.
