TEMPORARY PLANTING OR HEALING IN 



Cover the roots with mellow earth. Pack it with 

 the heel. Therefore, heeling in is the gardening 

 name. If you can turn on the hose so much the 

 better. 



t)oing this when you receive or unpack your trees 

 you can keep them for several weeks, even when the 

 leaves start out in the Spring. You can keep them 

 this way all Winter 



COVERING FOR A FEW HOURS 



Protect the roots with straw, burlap, blanket or 

 anything to keep off the sun and wind. Throw on 

 water. Because a root looks dry and dusty it is not 

 dead. Scratch the bark and see if it is not damp 

 inside
