Plant fruit trees about 2 inches deeper than 
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS grown in the nursery row. This puts the bud 
(or graft) just above the roots even or slightly below the surface of the soil, which is 
just right. Cut the ends of all roots smooth with a sharp knife, making a slanting cut. 
New roots form rapidly from this fresh cut. when the roots are in the ground. Plant- 
ing hole should be large enough so that roots don’t have to be bent or cramped. Fill 
in with top soil (no fertilizer added). Water well, to settle and pack soil around roots, 
and finish filling the hole with loose soil. After planting, cut the limbs of apple trees 
back to about one-half of their length, the center leader may be cut back a few inches. 
This makes a stouter crown, and starts the tree better.
