Requires 1, 3oz. packet per inch caliper, or per foot of root ball diameter.

PHC Tree Saver is designed to reduce transplant stress while improving soil hydration and fertility.  This product is a biologically active soil conditioner that is applied to the root zone of trees and shrubs at planting time.

Five species of mycorrhizal fungi and six species of beneficial bacteria are packed into this formula to improve plant nutrition and soil fertility.  The fungi absorb water and minerals for the plant's roots, while the bacteria fix nitrogen, solubilize phosphorous, and biodegrade organic matter, making trapped minerals accessible to plants.

PHC Tree Saver also contains formononetin, a naturally occurring stimulant of VA mycorrhizal fungi, Terra-Sorb hydrogel that traps water and holds it in the root zone, and humic acids which improve availability of mineral nutrients.  Seaweed meal and yucca plant extract are added as organic nutrients to support establishment of microbial populations.

PHC Tree Saver:

• Provides mycorrhizal fungi that can improve absorption of water and minerals from the soil
• Stimulates native and inoculated VAM fungal growth and colonization of roots
• Provides mycorrhizal fungi that can help plants mitigate adverse environmental stresses such as drought, salinity, and extremes of soil pH

Application rates are as follows:

For Beds: Use 1 quart (32 oz.) per 100 square feet.
