Planting Checklist
To ensure the success of your new trees and shrubs, we ask that you review this pre-installation checklist. If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-335-GROW.
- Are drainage, climate and exposure (sun, shade & wind) conditions appropriate for the plants being installed? If you are unsure, please ask us for advice.
- Is the area clear of all stumps, ground cover, debris, etc?
- Clearly mark all lines if they are in the planting area. Are there gas, power, cable, drain, water, sprinkler or invisible fence lines in the area? If you're unsure about public utility lines, call Miss Dig for free marking services: 1-800-482-7171.
- Have you staked the area to clearly identify where the plants go? Write the name of each plant on each stake.
- Is the planting area easy to find? Are all gates unlocked? Can the area be reached with a wheelbarrow?
New Tree & Shrub Care
Watering
After planting, trees and shrubs should be watered thoroughly, then water when soil is dry to the touch - about 1.5-inch or knuckle deep.
Check regularly and only water when necessary. Too much water or lack of water are top reasons plants fail to grow.
Water more frequently during long periods of hot and dry weather. Try to water before noon during warm weather. There's no need to water when a week's rainfall is at least 1-inch.
If plants are in clay soil, be sure they do not sit in water.
To encourage a deep root system, let a slow trickle of water soak into the soil at the plant base for 10 to 15 min.
Mulch
Keep the soil cultivated and grass-free around trees, or mulch with 1 to 2-inch of organic material such as pine, fir or cypress bark; or soil conditioner.
Fertilizing
English Gardens applied a starter fertilize at planting time, which should be sufficient for the first year.
Protection
Trunk-wrap young trees the first winter season to prevent sun-scald. Remove wrap in warm weather. Evergreens should be screened from wind and salt spray.
