fertilizing holly bushes

Question
Does it help to fertilize Hollys?

Answer
Jan,

Yes it does help to fertilize them, but I would recommend fertilizing only in the fall to encourage root growth and nutrient storage. The only exception is if the Hollies received winter damage, then I recommend a spring feeding to encourage more new growth.

Good luck,
