Planting 
Suggestions 
1. Arrival of Shipment. If plants are not 
to be put in their permanent place on arrival, 
put them in a trench and cover roots well 
and firmly with dirt. 
2. Preparing to Plant. Dig the hole for 
the plant considerably wider than the spread 
of the roots. Loosen soil in bottom of hole 
and if extremely clayey, put in sandy soil 
or loose material for drainage. Fill hole 
with rich loamy soil if possible. 
3. Setting the Plant. Spread carefully all 
root fibers. Set plant 1 to 3 inches deeper 
than it was planted in nursery. Do not plant 
too deep. Work soil around and under 
roots, leaving no air spaces. Pack dirt firm- 
ly near to top of hole. Give ample supply 
of water. Fill hole with loose earth and 
add mulch of some kind to preserve mois- 
ture. 
4. After Planting. Because of extreme 
evaporation of moisture from branches and 
trunk and the making of new roots, plants 
must have much water at all times during 
the first year and especially so during the 
hot and dry season. A much better plant 
will be made more quickly if proper pruning 
is done when planted.
