Arborjet debuts NutriRoot
Arborjet launched NutriRoot, a 2-part formula made
up of a nutrient pack and water manager in one that can
be used at planting or as maintenance to mature trees,
shrubs, landscape plants, and turf. NutriRoot promotes root
growth, reduces watering, improves transplant success, pro-
tects transplants from drought stress and shock, and feeds
roots all season long.
Unlike most products on the market that are purely
nutrient-based or just a standalone water management
product, NutriRoot combines these two elements into one
easy and effective treatment. In fact, in fi eld trials root
mass was doubled on plants treated with NutriRoot. This
enables new and mature plantings to more easily extract
water from the air and the soil, reducing the need for wa-
tering and results in successful plantings even in drought
conditions.
"In keeping with Arborjet's commitment to offering
innovative remedies that nurture plants, we are excited to
introduce NutriRoot, a unique product designed to enhance
root development and reduce watering stress. In particular,
this is critical where water is a precious resource," said Russ
Davis, president and COO of Arborjet.
