                                                    A:  Hello! Alaska Fish Fertilizer 5-1-1 provides a rich source of organic matter that releases nutrients into the soil. This product will not burn and does help enhance strength and vigor of your plants. For trees, we would recommend 4 tablespoons per gallon of water. This will cover 25 square feet. Apply every three weeks during the active growing season. However, in regard to your specific inquiry about brown fond frazzle, we would highly recommend reaching out to a nursery or a similar garden business that specializes in trees such as your Queen Palm Tree. Thank you.
