Yep! I use them with great results in my potted outdoor catnip plant, every 60 days, all year.

It depends on where you live. If you are south of TN or MO you can plant them anytime. I live in a slightly colder area so I keep mine as house plants in winter. In the summer I divide them. Some go in the garden as annuals (though some come back) and the rest as hanging baskets or porch pots. Anyway you use them, they are wonderful.

No, you still need to utilize a citrus-oriented fertilizer in the soil. The citrus fertilizer spikes supposedly work well for larger trees although I haven't used them personally (cannot be used for potted trees.)

Great! I immediately began using them when our landscaping was planted for our newly built home. Our trees and shrubs are flourishing as a result of using the fertilizers spikes every spring and fall since they were first planted.

Yes they do. You can use a succulent plant spray every month with watering. 17-8-22 is what I use.Good Luck, If you get into this I have a lot of babies to share.

I would not use the tree spikes for pampas grass. Jobe's has several other products that would be better. The tree spikes are quite large and may release too much fertilizer for pampas.

Yes. However, I would set it up a week before you leave and make sure the water is getting to the plants. I live in the desert southwest and the spikes have worked for me for over a month at a time.

No, this the only fertilzer you need, but you can use other minerals if you like. I would add mushroom compost mix with ground carbon carcoal if you like.

I overseed and fertilize every spring and fall using an organic fertilizer. Never had a problem.

Yes, it depends on the size of your plant. If you just planted one then one is enough for 6 mos, depending on your climate (some places it vegetates 9-12 mos). 2 spikes for a plant more than 3 feet in diameter.

Mine still need a lot of watering to stay healthy(2 or 3 times a week & they are 3 months old), so if your sprinklers outside are running I would say yes. Depending on where you live, I would wait until spring when the snow is gone. I contacted the sellers about shipping in the winter time and they answered my question within days....so try contacting them...they would have the best answer. Hardy Basjoo Banana Plant - Musa basjoo. Amazing "hardy tropical" banana for the north or south, though native to the Ryukyu Archipelago which lies between Japan and Taiwan, Musa basjoo is also very common in parts of China. This specimen will survive temperatures as low as -20 if mulched. Full sun with lots of water & fertilizer to achieve the amazing growth rate, but it will do fine in light shade as well. Beautiful deep green clump can grow up to 18' tall or more, and really gives a tropical warm sunny feeling. Great for any place in the garden, especially great around pools or patios, courtyards and wonderful in a border with other colorful perennials & grasses.

probably would be ok. the spikes are slow release and last a season according to the maker. if you use them put at edge of drip line and in fewer numbers than usual. b

Sorry, I don't know if the spikes can be used with American Holly's, Japanese Maples, Myrtle Crapes, Witch Hazels. I read the direction, put a spike next to one of three shrubs. The shrub where I used the spike is dead. On the other two shrubs I used triple 10 fertilizer and they are thriving. Before using this product, I recommend testing it.

I used Jobe's on two of my Sylvesters and the color improved within 30 days. I do not own any queens but according to my landscaper (in Tampa, FL) Jobe's spikes would work for almost any palm.

Hi, Donald. Most dogwoods are deciduous, which means this product is perfect. There is an evergreen variety (called capitata or just evergreen...creative name, I know), and for that you would what to use the Jobe's spikes for evergreen trees.

I use it for every single plant I have. It has worked so well with my orchids that I started using it on everything. My winter blooming orchids are all still blooming and they are still growing flower spikes. This is the only fertilizer I use now. It's very gentle and does not burn anything.

The spikes supplied are used when stands are placed on carpet. Use flat for hardwood or non carpet floors.
