If the industrial plant is balled - and - burlapped , bump off fasteners and fold back the top of natural burlap , tucking it down into kettle of fish , after you ’ve positioned shrub . Make certain that all burlap is buried so that it wo n’t wick water aside from rootball during hot , dry point . If man-made burlap , take out if possible . If not possible , rationalize away or make slit to provide for roots to develop into the new territory . For big shrubs , build a water well . Finish by mulching and irrigate well .
If shrub is bleak - root , reckon for a discolouration somewhere near the base ; this mark is likely where the dirt line of merchandise was . If dirt is too sandy or too clayey , sum organic matter . This will aid with both drainage and H2O holding capacity . Fill soil , firming just enough to support bush . Finish by mulching and watering well . How - to : Planting a TreeDig out an area for the Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree that is about 3 or 4 time the diameter of the container or rootball and the same profoundness as the container or rootball . Use a pitchfork or excavator to scarify the face of the gob .
If container - grown , lay the tree on its side and absent the container . Loosen the roots around the edges without break up the root ball too much . Position tree diagram in center of golf hole so that the good side confront forward . You are quick to begin fill in with soil .
