Use Miracle-Gro Shake 'N Feed Flowering Trees and Shrubs Plant Food if your tree is struggling in the summer (apply every 3 months during growing season). **Q: Can fertilizer spikes go bad?** A: The fresher, the better, but you can store leftover spikes for the next feeding season. Seal in a plastic bag and store in a dry place. Don't toss the label–keep it to reference next time your trees need a nutrition boost. **Q: Can you use plant food spikes on outdoor plants?** A: If your "outdoor plant" is a tree or shrub, then absolutely! We also recommend our Tree & Shrub Plant Food Spikes for acid-loving plants. Our Shake 'N Feed Granular Plant Foods or Water Soluble Plant Foods are good for smaller container plants. ## Frequently Bought Together - Miracle-Gro Tree and Shrub Plant Food Spikes, For Deciduous, Flowering and Evergreen Trees, 12 Spikes - Miracle-Gro Water Soluble All Purpose Plant Food, Fertilizer for Indoor or Outdoor Flowers, Vegetables or Trees, 3 lbs. - Miracle-Gro Shake 'N Feed All Purpose Plant Food, For In-Ground and Container Plants, Feeds for up to 3 Months, 4.5 lbs. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/53936698-tree-and-shrub-plant-food-spikes-deciduous-flowering-and-evergreen](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/53936698-tree-and-shrub-plant-food-spikes-deciduous-flowering-and-evergreen) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
