Terracottem Arbor is a premium soil amendment designed specifically for trees, hedges, and large plants. Available in 10kg and 20kg sizes, this product is engineered to improve the growth and health of trees during planting and throughout their early establishment phase. The unique formulation contains a mix of hydrophilic (water-attracting) polymers, nutrients, and essential trace elements to significantly improve water retention, soil structure, and root development.
Terracottem Arbor ensures that newly planted trees have all the necessary resources to thrive, even in challenging conditions such as dry spells or poor-quality soils. The hydrophilic polymers retain moisture in the soil, reducing the need for frequent irrigation, while the added nutrients support healthy root growth, helping trees establish strong root systems and resist transplant shock. This product is perfect for landscapers, gardeners, and arborists looking to enhance tree planting success, whether for urban green spaces, parks, or private landscapes.
Features & Benefits
Hydrophilic Polymers: Retain water in the soil, reducing the need for frequent watering and ensuring consistent moisture levels for newly planted trees.
Improved Root Development: Specially formulated to promote rapid root growth and establishment, reducing transplant shock.
Enhanced Soil Structure: Terracottem Arbor improves the overall soil quality by increasing soil porosity, making it easier for roots to spread and access nutrients.
Long-Lasting Effects: The water retention properties continue to function for extended periods, ensuring that plants are supported during their early establishment phase.
Nutrient-Rich Formulation: Contains essential macro and micronutrients, including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and trace elements to encourage healthy growth.
Ideal for Trees and Hedges: Perfect for new plantings, including trees, hedges, and larger shrubs, in both urban and rural environments.
Easy to Apply: Simply mix with the soil at the planting site, ensuring even distribution of nutrients and water retention agents.
Applications & Rates
Terracottem Arbor is designed to be used during the planting of trees and hedges, ensuring they have the resources they need for strong initial growth and establishment.
Application Rate:
For Newly Planted Trees: Mix 50g–100g per planting hole depending on tree size and planting conditions.
For Larger Trees (more than 2m in height): Increase the rate to 200g–400g per hole, ensuring ample support for the tree's growth.
For Hedging: Mix 50g per meter of hedge.
How to Apply:
Dig a planting hole for the tree or hedge.
Mix Terracottem Arbor with the backfill soil, ensuring even distribution.
Place the tree or hedge in the hole and fill with the prepared soil mixture, gently firming it around the roots.
Water thoroughly after planting to activate the polymers and ensure initial hydration.
When to Apply:
Apply at planting time to support root development and reduce transplant shock.
Best used in spring and autumn for optimal results, but can be used year-round if necessary.
