CARE OF TREES 
Unpack without exposing roots longer than neces- 
sary. Dig a trench in loose soil 2 feet wide, 14 inches 
deep. Cut strings and put trees in side by side; cover 
roots with fine earth, filtered in among the roots. 
Water well when the trench is half full; fill in trench. 
Pruning Roots and Tops. With sharp knife trim off 
broken roots and bruised ends of roots of all deciduous 
trees and shrubs. The tops of deciduous trees and 
shrubs should be pruned in proportion to the amount 
of roots lost in transplanting. Usually remove %% of 
top growth. Most evergreens from cans or that are 
balled need no pruning when planted. If requested to 
do so we will prune back all plants before shinpine Do 
not cut top off Birch trees. 
The Importance of Staking. Tall deciduous trees 
should be firmly staked when planted. 
After Care. Never let trees get dry during the first 
summer, often see that they get a thorough soaking. 
This is vastly better than giving them a little water at 
a time. Keep the ground around your plants and trees 
thoroughly loose. A good mulch is a great help. 
Safety and Protection. In nearly all cases it is ad- 
visable to give the trunk of deciduous trees protection 
to guard against sunburn. This is done by giving the 
trunk a thorough whitewashing to the first branches 
and then placing the Tree Wraps listed on Page 12. 
Wire Tags. Should be removed when planting or 
they will girdle tree.
