Tree Care Guide
Use this guide when caring for your newly planted tree.
Watering your tree(s) is vital to the survival after transplanting. This will allow the tree to reestablish a strong root system. Please follow these guidelines to give your tree(s) the best possible chance for success:
Deep soakings are better for trees than frequent shallow waterings. The soil should be kept moist at all times.
