I have bottle brush also on my property and I feed them the same time I feed the palms. You can use the same feed Lesco 8-2-12 on that also. You can use that feed on all your bushes and trees in March, July, and November. It is a superior fertilizer to use I highly recommend it, just make sure to follow the directions on the bag. When feeding any of your plants or trees do not put the fertilizer up close to the plant or trunk of the tree, you can do more damage then good. Stay out on the drip line of the plants and trees that is where the newer root system is, and that is the area where the trees and plants are pulling most of there nutrients from.
