- 10-10-10 For Evergreens
- 40 Easy-Drive Stakes
- 12-Month Feeding
- Only One Application
Leonard Fertilizer Stakes for Evergreens 10-10-10 take the guesswork out of feeding conifers and other evergreen plantings. One application typically lasts about 12 months, so you’re not mixing liquids or chasing weekly schedules. Each box includes 40 stakes (about 1" diameter x 8" long) with plastic drive caps that help you tap them in cleanly with a small mallet. These are our favorite way to feed evergreen trees.
These stakes are made to be installed near the dripline, which keeps nutrients focused on the active root zone instead of scattered across the yard. The 10-10-10 blend is well suited for maintaining evergreen color and growth, and it also works as a general-purpose fertilizer for many other landscape plants. Because the stakes feed over time, they’re a practical option for homeowners and crews managing multiple trees.

Product Tips
- Drive stakes at least 2 inches below the soil surface.
- Keep stakes at least 2 feet from the trunk to avoid concentrating fertilizer too close to the stem.
- Place stakes evenly around the dripline for more uniform feeding.
- Water after installation to help begin nutrient movement into the root zone.
- If soil is dry or compacted, water first to soften the ground before using a mallet.
FAQs
How do I apply these to evergreen trees?
Use one stake for every inch of trunk diameter, measured about 2 feet above the ground. Space the stakes evenly around the dripline, and keep them at least 2 feet from the trunk.
How far into the ground do the stakes go?
Install them at least 2 inches below the surface so they stay in place and feed into the root zone.
Can I use these on shrubs?
Yes. Use one stake for every 2 feet of plant height, placed evenly at the dripline and never closer than 12 inches from the trunk.
Do I need to dig holes?
No. The plastic drive caps are made for surface installation with a small mallet, so you can tap them in without digging and backfilling.
