Lawn and shrub fertilization

The foundation of a vibrant, thriving landscape begins below the surface. Proper fertilization gives your lawn and shrubs the nutrients they need to grow strong, resist stress, and look their best through all four seasons. At Ponti Landscapes, we offer professional fertilization services that support long-term plant health while addressing the unique soil and climate conditions of central North Carolina.

We work with homeowners across Cary, Apex, Raleigh, and surrounding areas to build customized fertilization plans that strengthen lawns, improve shrub performance, and help outdoor spaces flourish.

Why Fertilization Matters

Like any living thing, grass and shrubs need balanced nutrition to grow and perform. Over time, soil can lose the essential nutrients that support plant health, especially in high-traffic areas or during periods of heat and drought.

• Benefits of proper fertilization include:

• Encouraging stronger, deeper root systems

• Supporting greener, thicker turf

• Promoting new growth and healthy foliage

• Improving resilience against pests, drought, and disease

• Enhancing the overall appearance and health of your landscape

A well-fed lawn and landscape not only looks better but also performs better under stress.

Customized Lawn Fertilization Programs

We take a targeted approach to lawn fertilization based on your grass type, soil condition, and seasonal needs. Common turf varieties in our area include Bermuda, Zoysia, and Tall Fescue, each of which requires a slightly different schedule and nutrient balance.

Our programs include:

• Soil evaluation and nutrient recommendations

• Seasonal treatments with the right blend of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium

• Optional weed and pest control applications

• Slow-release fertilizers for longer-lasting results

• Follow-up care and monitoring

• We also adjust our approach based on rainfall patterns, temperature shifts, and how your lawn responds to previous treatments.

• Shrub and Plant Fertilization

Shrubs and ornamental plants benefit from strategic feeding throughout the year. We use a combination of deep root feeding, granular applications, and soil-enhancing techniques to ensure your shrubs stay healthy, vibrant, and strong.

Our shrub fertilization plans include:

• Nutrient-rich applications tailored to plant type and location

• Support for blooming cycles, foliage development, and root growth

• Soil-friendly products that improve overall structure and moisture retention

Whether you have evergreen hedges, flowering shrubs, or newly planted beds, we’ll build a plan that supports the health and appearance of your plantings.

Timing Is Everything

In our region, timing matters just as much as product selection. Cool-season grasses like Fescue benefit from fall and spring applications, while warm-season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia do best with early summer fertilization. Shrubs often need feeding in early spring or late fall, depending on the species.

We work with your plant and lawn type to build a schedule that fits your landscape and your goals.
