How to Piant Balled and Burlapped Evergreens 
Follow directions as outlined in picture above. If ball of earth appears hard 
and dry upon arrival, soak it in a tub of water before planting. Leave saucer around 
base of tree so that drainage will be towards tree. Do not put fresh manure in 
hole so it comes in contact with the roots. Use well-rotted manure and spread it 
on the ground after tree is planted and hole filled up. Keep ground well culti- 
vated or mulched. When watering, see that ground is soaked to a depth of 12 or 
15 inches. Just sprinkling the surface is not enough. IU (irregular upright) GI (globe) Py (pyramidal) CR (creeper) SE (semi-erect) Co (Cone)
