A Slow-Release SolutionThe fast-release, soluble nutrients in many fertilizers can damage tender absorbing roots in hot summer weather.

“Do it right or not at all.”

Throughout his life and career, John Davey was

taught him when he was just 4 years old.He was watching his father plant potatoes and asked if he might plant one, too. His father cut a potato in half and sent the youngster to fetch a large iron spoon. He looked at John and said, “Listen to me carefully. Do it right or not at all.” Then he showed John how to plant the two pieces of potato and how to use the spoon to properly cover them with dirt.As the summer wore on, young John carefully tended his potato plants, learning all of the basics of proper plant care from his father.John frequently referred to this lesson as he grew The Davey Tree Expert Company to motivate employees and to inspire creative solution for clients.
