Follow these simple steps to planting success with Rootgrow™

  • 1. Dig planting hole as normal.
  • 2. Look at the base of the plant that is being planted and sprinkle into the bottom ofthe hole enough granules to cover only that area. Do not mix in.
  • 3. Place the plant in the hole directly on top of the granules. It is important that the granules come into direct contact with the plant roots.
  • 4. Backfill as normal with compost/soil.
  • 5. If using additional fertiliser add as a top dress or in backfill.
  • 6. Add mulch or top dress as required.

Application of AfterPlant Tree & Shrub with rootgrow™ by Empathy

  • Plants in ground: Apply 1-2 handfuls around the base of the plant, lightly work into the soil and water well. For larger established plants, apply 2 handfuls per m of the canopy of the tree.
  • Container plants: Apply 2-3 handfuls per plant twice a yearly. We recommend that once per year the top 5-10cm of soil are removed from the pot and replaced with fresh compost. Add 1-2 handfuls when replacing the compost to keep your plants in prime condition.
