Together with natural magnesium and trace elements to encourage healthy leaf growth and vibrant colours.In the garden: Apply Acer Feed as a spring top-dressing at a rate of 120g/m2 beneath the spread of the branches.

Contains a rich mix of nitrogen, phosphate and potash along with magnesium and trace elements to encourage healthy growth and vibrant foliage.
