How To Plant A Tree

Step 1
Before you start digging a hole, soak your tree in a plastic trug or bucket of water.
Step 2
Decide on the right spot, and dig a generous hole – it should be the same depth as the rootball. Enrich the soil with a few scoops of Gro-Sure Farmyard Manure.
Step 3
Using a cane, check that the rootball is level with the soil surface.
Step 4
Remove the tree from the pot and place it in the hole, keeping the tree trunk upright. Sprinkle a little Rootgrow Mycrorrhizal Fungi around for good root development.
Step 5
Re-fill the hole with soil, and firm the surface with your foot.
Step 6
Water well and add a mulch to prevent weeds and help retain moisture.
