Carl Pool Palm Food 12-4-12 4 Lbs

Makes a huge difference and brings back some wear from the looks it is used on the lighter side but the majority of plant bulked

My sago and foxtail palms were yellow and droopy after a brutal summer—thought they were goners. Switched to Carl Pool after reading it's the gold standard for micronutrients, and wow: two applications later, fronds are exploding with new growth, no more frizzle! The 12-4-12 mix with extra mag and manganese is spot-on; no leaching in my sandy soil, and it fed for a full season. Easy to scoop around the drip line, and my hibiscus bonus bloomed like crazy too. Beats pricey Miracle-Gro hands down—my backyard oasis is back! If your palms need a boost, this is the one. 5 stars forever.

The palm food is great! My palm trees are very healthy. But this item was delivered with a slightly open lid and palm food got all over the item that Amazon packaged it with. Very unhappy about the packaging by Amazon!

I have been using Carl Pool Palm Food for serveral years with excellent results. We have 2 sago palms in our front yard, which are the focal points of our home driveway. This product has helped to maintain the palms in good health with new growth each year. It is easy to apply and is cost effective. I highly recommend this product for sago palms but don't know how effective it might be for other palm varieties.

I use the Clemson University site to research all kinds of plant issues. They have a great collection of palm care articles. One of them details the ideal fertilizer mix and trace elements. The Carl Pool Palm Fertilizer is an exact match for their recommendations. It's a bit more expensive than MiracleGrow, but if you factor in the cost of the elements missing from MiracleGrow, you'll find value and convenience with this plant food. // I'm not affiliated with Clemson, but they got a great football team!

Easy to use Convenient

This is a great product. My poor pineapple palms were so sad. And they responded immediately. Super product for them.

I was expecting a water soluble fertilizer but this is a grainy type. I wanted something that can be poured around the trees and not leave anything the dogs could eat. As for the effectiveness, I cannot say. I did dissolve some and poured it on one tree. That was a real pain and impossible to dissolve all the grains. So far I haven't seen any change in the tree but it's been extremely hot (110 degrees+ F) recently which is stressing the trees.
