I planted a couple of trees for a lady awhile back and she brought out this bag of "fertilizer" she wanted spread in the hole of each tree. No Problem so I started grabbing it by the handfuls and sprinkling it in each hole and around the trees. I handed her what was left and she said " No I want it all in there, this is my husband and he wouldn't let me have any of these trees so now he will help them grow......"
