Planting Time
- Plant year-round, avoiding frosty or frozen ground
Positioning Trees
- Choose a spot with space for the canopy to spread
- Soil: Fertile, well-drained; light or heavy clay
- pH: Suitable for acidic, neutral, or alkaline soils
- Maintain 4m distance from hard surfaces
- Plant with the rootball level with the soil; backfill and firm gently
After Care
- Soak the rootball for 10 minutes before planting
- Water thoroughly after planting
- During dry spells, water every 2 days
- Weed regularly; bindweed can smother young trees
- Keep grass growth away from the tree base
- Avoid using strimmers around the trunk
- Prune out old wood as the tree matures
- Maintain an open canopy by removing inward-growing branches
Note: We don't ship plants on Fridays due to the extended period they would remain without light & water
