Feeding Russian Cypress

Question

I am trying to start some Russian Cypress bushes, and last summer used Miracle-Gro on them as well as watering weekly. I was wondering if I should be using Mir-Acid instead, or something else? Do you have any recommendations?

Answer 1

Russian Cypress, like most evergreens, doesn't usually need fertilizer once it's established, unless it appears to have a deficiency (like if leaves turn yellow). Optionally, it can be fertilized once a year with a fertilizer designed for evergreens.
