MEMORIAL TREE CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Remove me from my shipping box. If I have paper wrap, please take that off. The wrap and ribbon are recyclable. I come in a plastic bag to protect my soil. Please remove it from my pot. (Do not remove my pot until ready to plant.)
- Water me. Place me outside. I am not an indoor plant. Make sure you water me especially in warm weather.
- I can be planted any time of the year. Here are some tips on where to plant me. Make sure there is no competition for my space such as other plants or grass. Try to find places with well drained soil.
- Dig a hole 6-8 inches wider than I am. Loosen some of the soil in the hole. Take me out of my pot.
- Hold me straight and fill the hole with moist soil. Plant me 1 inch deeper than the ground line on my trunk. Avoid air pockets in the hole.
- The first year, please water me approximately every 3 weeks. Water me weekly in the summer months.
- If I'm a deciduous tree, I lose my leaves in the fall. In the spring, new leaves will appear.
