Salix lanata - Willow

Fertilization Salix lanata : In autumn we must plant a good quantity of organic fertilizer of humus at the base of the shrubs . This type of fertilization, besides improving the mixture of the soil, makes macroelemnts, prevalently nitrogen, available for 3-4 months. In this manner the soil near our shrubs has a source of nitrogen which will be prolonged until the next spring.
