Fertilome (11207) Tree & Shrub Drench (1 gal)

Excellent product for crepe myrtles in Tx. I mixed as instructed and applied once to soil in mid spring just before crepes budded out. I didn't have ANY of that terrible scale that the plants were coated with last summer. This systemic insecticide (when mixed correctly for the plant size) works great!! Will absolutely be ordering more for nxt spring. Pleasantly surprised 🙂

I've used this product for years, mostly to protect my boxwoods from leaf miners. It works reliably for a long time. As a drench, the product gets absorbed by the entire plant, and protects if for months. I only apply it once, in early spring, and it's good for all summer.

This works and has an advantage of being a yearly treatment. Easy to use as no spraying is required; just pour the diluted product onto soil around plant. Please follow directions and do not apply to plants in bloom so as not to kill bees collecting pollen.

This stuff works great, no bugs on my bushes now.

Works well but expensive if you have a lot of shrubs to treat.

This stuff really works, only have to apply once a year. Plants seem healthier, get rid of those pesky bugs and especially those irritating white flies. Depend on what you’re treating. A gallon can last for a few years.

I’m a self proclaimed green thumb. This drench has saved every bush/tree I own. We have boaring beatles here and I steer all my neighbors to this rootball drench. My neighbor.. dropped the entire gallon on 2 texas shumard red oaks, about an inch and a half in diameter.. not even watered downed.. and they are doing amazing. Half my neighborhood is losing trees and it’s not a watering issue. This and ortho home defense are incredibly effective as a root ball soak. Goodluck yall. Dont eat any fruit or nuts from this treatment.. but rest assured, your plants will only die in your hands lol

The issue on my Cana Lillies is the leaf roller bugs do a number on them every spring. And the solution is to treat the plants as they have just started growing but before the bugs have a chance to establish themselves. I've used this product for a few years and been pretty happy with the performance, adding about 16 oz. to a 2-gallon pail and then literally drenching the soil and inside the plants once they get about 12" in height. The mixture can be poured from a watering can (my preferred method) or with a pressure sprayer (which just takes a long time to really get the volume needed into the soil). I don't know of an alternative to this product and this large jug from Amazon is a good value compared to the little bottles I've been using from my local garden supply shop. In past summers, it has given good protection for a month or so before the leaf rollers show up again, but less aggressively. I treated a little heavier and earlier this year, so time will tell; I may also do a mid-summer drench for good measure.

Brilliant product - wish we had tried it sooner to get rid of the aphids

Absolutely amazing! I’ve had a soft scale infestation on my hydrangeas for 2 years now and have tried absolutely everything to get rid of them. This has literally been the best purchase I’ve ever made, as 3-4 weeks in, my hydrangeas are incredibly almost 100% free of these awful pests! Will definitely be buying this again!
