Wilbur Ellis Autumn Elite

This fertilizer is specifically formulated for autumn maintenance where phosphorus is often not required for established lawns. By omitting phosphorus, the formula focuses entirely on nitrogen for color and potassium for root strength and stress tolerance as the grass prepares for winter.

The high nitrogen content provides a final boost of green-up, while the equal portion of potassium helps the grass build cellular strength. This combination is ideal for helping your lawn withstand the physiological stress of dropping temperatures and frost.

No, this is a mineral-based, synthetic fertilizer. It is designed for efficient nutrient delivery and is not certified for organic gardening.

For the most even distribution, use a rotary or drop spreader calibrated to the manufacturer's recommended settings. Since the formula is not water-soluble, ensure you apply it to a dry lawn and lightly irrigate afterward to help the granules settle into the soil.

This product is intended for established lawns rather than new seedlings. Because it lacks phosphorus, which is essential for root development in young grass, it is better suited for mature turf that needs seasonal hardening.
