What is Sprout-Gard?

SPROUT-GARD is a tree growth regulator to inhibit sprouting of new growth from pruning of deciduous trees. One application will retard sprouting of new growth for many hardwood species and aid in the suberization of the wound to increase the time between pruning cycles.

  • Correct tree pruning and trimming practices should always be followed for optimum results.
