To feed or not to feed

Question from paula hewitt

Hi there,

My neighbour is a gardener and says i should feed my witch hazel when in bloom with a iron fertilizer. I checked this out on Shoot and there is no mention of feeding this lovely tree.

I dont want to do the wrong thing so can someone let me know what to do for the best?

Thanks in advance,

Paula
