My daughter’s neighbor gave it to her for us to try and my orange tree was I thought it’s dead for a year because it’s brown really looks like it’s gone then I tried it and now it came back . Im so happy with the result of this product that is why I bought a package because I just planted a lemon tree and I noticed that the leaves are yellowing then again I just fertilized it with the JOBE IM SOLD ITS A GOOD FETILIZERI THOUGHT ITS WORKS FOR ME!

I live in south central coastal Florida and about 3 weeks ago used several of these fertilizer spikes on a large lime tree and a mid-size Meyer lemon tree in my yard.The spikes are a convenient way to fertilize and are fairly easy to insert, especially if the package includes the necessary plastic caps, as mine did. Even in sandy soil I found it necessary to use a pointed object (long screwdriver, metal or wooden dowel, etc.) to make and expand an initial hole, which made it easier to pound down the fertilizer spike. In sandy or light soil it is also possible to stick a trowel or small shovel or a pick in the ground to the appropriate depth (about 10-11 inches), wiggle it a bit to make the hole wider, pound in the spike, and then push the loose soil in around and on top of the spike and water it in.Lime tree: This tree, which had maybe a dozen limes on it, was heavily overgrown and on December 3 I had it trimmed back substantially; on December 10 I noticed lots of flower buds in several areas where the tree had been trimmed. I inserted the fertilizer spikes on December 11 and I have noticed lots of new stem and leaf growth in the three weeks since then. However, it is not clear how much of the new growth can be attributed to the spikes and how much to the tree trimming. Since the new buds appeared after trimming and before the spikes were inserted, it seems clear that the new buds were stimulated by the trimming.Meyer lemon tree: This tree, which is currently bearing several dozen lemons, was only slightly overgrown, so on December 3 I snipped off several small branches that were growing beyond the drip line and a few small dead branches here and there--nothing like the heavy trimming of the lime tree described above. Three weeks after inserting the spikes I have not seen any new buds and only a bit of new stem and leaf growth. It may be that since the tree is bearing so many lemons all of its energy is going to grow the lemons, not new buds or stems or leaves.In short, after 3 weeks I can't really tell whether the fertilizer spikes are making any difference; perhaps another 3 or 4 weeks will reveal meaningful changes. However, I know that my trees are in sandy soil and haven't been fertilized for many years, so I am comfortable with having purchased and inserted the spikes, which are convenient to use, have no runoff and no odor, and have a 6-month time release.I will keep track of how my trees are doing and will update this review if I observe any positive or negative developments. For now I will rate these four stars, with potential to go to five stars if results warrant.

We have used Jobe products for a number of years and have always found them to be helpful in maintaining the health of our plants. This product is for trees and large shrubbery.We have seven younger trees in the yard of our new home. They were planted during the build process ands have been in for about a year or so. We were looking for a product to provide slow fertilization without the need for us to periodically feed. We had waited a year to give be trees time to establish a good tap root. These spikes are easy to use and go in the outer drip line of the trees. Where the water drips of f the outmost leaves. They are easy to install and the included installation cap gives you something to pound on when placing them in the ground.They have only been in for a couple of weeks, and with some rain we have had we have noticed that the trees look more green and have new growth. Great product!

This was recommended to us by two local landscapers. Our palm tree loves it! It made a positive change in its health and appearance in under three weeks.
