Ratings & Reviews for Miracle-Gro Evergreen 12-Count Continuous Release Tree Food Spikes
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these fertilizer spikes for delivering visible improvements in tree and shrub health, with many reporting recovery from stress, frost damage, and deer browsing. The slow-release formula provides consistent nutrition through seasons, requiring minimal effort—most appreciate the simplicity of application and ability to fertilize just once or twice yearly. However, some report durability issues: plastic caps split or break easily, and spikes crumble when driven into hard soil, with users recommending pre-drilling to avoid damage. A few note no noticeable difference in tree health. Despite these concerns, most customers consider the product highly effective and convenient.

Would RecommendGreat way to feed shrubs and trees. The stakes make it easy way to deliver by creating a small hole and placing them in the ground for slow release.

Been using spikes for years and they always work
Have bought the ones for trees and bushes and the work great. So I’ll give these a try for my green giants.

Seems good but plastic caps are not good
Would RecommendThe product seems ok. The plastic caps that go on the spike is terrible and split after a couple spikes. It’s hard to tell if it’s working because it’s a spike that goes in the dirt.

Consistent Feeding During Difficult Growing Season
Would RecommendThe Miracle-Gro Tree Food Spikes have provided consistent feeding to my arbor vitae shrubs despite a particularly difficult growing season. We have had excessive heat, humidity and rain for our geographic area, but my arbor vitae have resisted the climate changes well.
