## Overview

Miracle-Gro Fruit & Citrus Plant Food Spikes deliver a targeted 10-15-15 NPK nutrient boost directly to the root zone with 12 slow-release spikes per pack. Designed specifically for fruit, citrus, and palm trees, these spikes simplify feeding by requiring only two seasonal applications—spring and fall—ensuring healthier foliage and increased fruit production with minimal effort.

## Description

Growing your own fresh fruit is a delicious reward, and Miracle-Gro Fruit & Citrus Plant Food Spikes make it easier than ever to keep your trees productive through the planting season and growing season. We know you want a bountiful harvest, and this citrus fertilizer spike option is made for fruit and citrus trees during both spring feeding and fall feeding to help you get there. These 10-15-15 NPK plant food spikes contain natural ingredients and release essential plant nutrients directly into the root zone where your trees need it most. Targeted feeding helps your fruit and citrus trees thrive with consistent nutrition and promotes more fruit and encourages lush, vibrant foliage on citrus, fruit, and even palm trees (vs. unfed plants). Using these plant food sticks is simple and hassle-free, low-maintenance solution so gardeners, home gardeners, and homeowners can easily keep up with fruit tree maintenance. Just apply once in early spring and again in mid-fall to provide continuous nutritional support throughout the growing season. To use, simply drive the fruit tree nutrient spikes into the soft soil around your tree's dripline, spacing them at least 3 feet apart (check the label for the exact number needed). Whether you are caring for lemon, lime, apple, or palm trees, each 12-count package feeds 12 trees with a 4-ft. dripline.

Review: Excellent! - I have been using Miracle-Gro Plant Food Spikes for the past two years, and my fruit trees are thriving and doing excellent. The difference in growth and overall health has been very noticeable. The leaves are greener, the trees look stronger, and the fruit production has improved. What I really like is how easy these spikes are to use. You simply dig a small hole around the tree and place the spike in the ground—no mixing, no measuring, and no mess. It saves time and ensures the nutrients go directly to the roots where they are needed most. This product makes feeding fruit and citrus trees simple and effective. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an easy way to keep their trees healthy and productive.
Review: Convenient and Effective Feeding for My Citrus Trees - I’ve been using the Miracle-Gro Fruit & Citrus Plant Food Spikes for several seasons now, and they continue to be one of the easiest and most effective ways to fertilize my citrus trees. I have a few dwarf citrus varieties—lemon, lime, and a young satsuma—and these spikes have made a noticeable difference in growth, foliage health, and fruit production. What I really love about this product is the convenience. Instead of mixing liquid fertilizers or trying to spread granular feed evenly, you just push these spikes into the soil near the root zone (according to the package instructions), and you're done. The nutrients are slowly released over time, so the trees get consistent feeding without risk of over-fertilizing. I apply them about once in early spring and again mid-summer, and that seems to be enough for my potted and in-ground trees. Within a few weeks of using the spikes, I typically see deeper green leaves and more vigorous new growth. One of my potted Meyer lemons that had been looking pale really perked up after I added the spikes—leaves darkened and the tree produced a healthy flush of blooms. I also appreciate that Miracle-Gro tailored this formula specifically for fruit and citrus, as not all plant food is created equal. This gives me some peace of mind that I'm giving my trees what they need without guessing. Highly recommend for both new and experienced gardeners who want a low-maintenance, effective way to support healthy citrus and fruiting plants!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use fertilizer spikes in the summer?**
A: Our plant food spikes should be applied in the early spring and mid-fall for optimal results. 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Somewhat Clunky But Does the Job
*by E***N on February 20, 2026*

I’m giving these four stars for the awkwardness factor. I just hammered some of these spikes into the ground around my lemon tree. The soil was quite wet from recent heavy rains. Even so, I found I needed to use a hand tool to dig a hole into which I could place the spike and then hammer it down below the ground a couple inches as instructed. You need to place one of the two provided plastic caps over the fertilizer spike to keep the solid fertilizer from breaking down as you hammer it into the ground. My first cap lasted for three spikes before breaking. I don’t expect the remaining plastic cap to last much longer, meaning that I’ll need to really dig next time as the spikes disintegrate if you hammer them without a cap. So that will be work. Another noteworthy item is the packaging, which I found hard to open without ripping the instructions printed on the outer bag. The small cardboard box over which the plastic cover was used is also awkward to open. Miracle Grow advises finding a sealable plastic bag to store unused spikes in, and keeping the outer bag with instructions in that sealable bag. All this to say it will make for some bulky, somewhat awkward storage. I can’t comment on the effectiveness of the fertilizer but I’ve never been disappointed with Miracle Grow before. If I get less than stellar results I’ll come back and update. But I’m expecting them to work well.
