Repels Insects Naturally Why Neem Trees? The Neem Tree has been cultivated for centuries for its many beneficial uses, including using the leaves to naturally repel pests. The leaves are often stored in cabinets, windows and grain storages to keep bugs away. Instead of using harmful chemical sprays to keep destructive bugs like aphids from entering your garden, or annoying bugs like mosquitos away, you can add a Neem Tree to your landscape for an organic solution. Best of all, Neem Trees don’t bother good bugs like pollinators and won’t keep them away from your yard. Neem Trees are evergreens that are a delight to grow. In the spring, Neem Trees erupt with large clusters of fragrant white blooms that will add beauty and a floral fragrance to your yard before turning into ornamental, vibrant yellow fruit.

Planting: Start by choosing a location with 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day, as well as well-drained soil. After choosing your location, dig a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the tree even with the soil level and back fill with soil, watering lightly after every few inches to remove any air pockets. Water when done then cover the area with a wide mulch ring to help the Neem Tree conserve moisture. 2. Watering: Water regularly, but do not keep the soil saturated. Generally, we recommend watering your Neem Tree when the soil is dry to a depth of about 1 to 2 inches down. 3. Fertilizing: Fertilize the tree in the early spring with a general purpose, slow-release fertilizer that is higher in nitrogen.
