A balanced, time-release fertilizer for acid-loving woody plants describes the type of fertilizer to be used for laurel hedges. The woody plants in question (Lauraceae family) respond to the same fertilizers that grow azaleas and rhododendrons. A 10-10-10 NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) fertilizer formulated for acid-lovers, azaleas, laurels and rhododendrons or the combination of loamy compost and organic mulch serve as examples.
