Growth response of licuala spinosa thunberg under fertiliser application
Licuala spinosa Thunberg is a valuable ornamental tree species in the Palmae family. The growth response of L. spinosa seedlings under 25 g, 50 g, 75 g, and 100 g of fertilisation for 5 months was investigated to determine the optimum fertiliser for plant growth. Application of 25 g of fertiliser re...

| Summary: | Licuala spinosa Thunberg is a valuable ornamental tree species in the Palmae family. The growth response of L. spinosa seedlings under 25 g, 50 g, 75 g, and 100 g of fertilisation for 5 months was investigated to determine the optimum fertiliser for plant growth. Application of 25 g of fertiliser resulted in better growth in terms of height diameter, and leaves growth of L. spinosa seedlings. Application of greater than 25 g of fertiliser did not increase the growth performance. The importance role of fertiliser in plant growth for landscaping is discussed. |
