PLANTING TREES IN A MORE SUSTAINABLE AND EFFICIENT MANNER: www.sustaffor.eu
TerraCottem Arbor - our newest soil conditioner - has been developed specially for tree and shrub planting. Central to this latest formulation are the new generation polymers, the inclusion of humic acids to further enhance water retention capacity, soil structure and microbiological activity and tree specific fertilizers (with a lifespan up to 12 months) balanced with a starter fertilizer for rapid plant establishment and a synthetic nitrogen fertilizer. All this, to ease early tree acclimation to the planting area, enhance root and plant growth and increase tree survival rate whilst reducing inputs and replacement costs.
