How to Plant “B & B” Evergreens 
When SPECIMEN EVERGREENS are shipped balled 
and burlapped, you need not remove the burlap from the 
ball. Dig the hole a foot larger than the ball, and deep 
enough so that the tree will set an inch or two deeper 
than it did in the nursery. Then roll back the burlap 
from around the trunk of the tree. Do not strip it 
from the sides of the ball or the ball may break. Pack 
fine dirt verey firmly around the ball and pour on 
enough water to thoroughly soak all the roots. The 
burlap left around the ball will soon rot away. See 
picture below.

How to Plant Balled in Moss Evergreens 
Many of our evergreens are balled in moss instead of 
in dirt. Take the burlap and moss from around the 
roots and plant like any other tree, using plenty of 
water, and tramping the dirt as firmly as possible.
