Abstract
There was little difference noted in plant growth and quality of Areca palm, Chrysalidocarpus lutescens Wendl., when treated with three levels of several slow-release fertilizers at the manufacturer's recommended rates. The two resin-coated (RC) materials 18N-2.6P-10K and 17N-3.1P-10K (18-6-12 and 17-7-12) and urea formaldehyde (UF) fertilizer 10N-4.4P-8.3K (10-10-10) resulted in significantly better growth than either the isobutyledene diurea (IBDU) 20N-2.2P-4.2K (20-5-5) or the sulfur-coated urea (SCU) 14N-6P-12K (14-14-14) fertilizer sources. The RC materials were the least expensive fertilizers used in the production of this slow growing crop.
