Potted PlantsUsually it is the smaller plants the ones that are sold potted but you can also find larger shrubs sold that way, regardless the procedure is the same:1. Dig a hole about twice as wide and twice as deep as the original container. 2. Add some organic matter (so you need to buy some) and fill the hole with soil about halfway. 3. Put the plant into the hole and spread the roots (carefully!) out. 4. Fill in with soil around the plant and add water every so often (this will take care of air pockets and keep the roots moistened.) 5. Add some mulch and you are done! Potted PlantsUsually it is the smaller plants the ones that are sold potted but you can also find larger shrubs sold that way, regardless the procedure is the same:1. Soak the roots before planting (the bigger the plant, the longer the soak.) 2. Dig a hole and make it a bit wider than your calculations. 3. Place the plant into the hole and hold it upright while you add soil around the base. 4. Add the rest of the soil and press firmly (but not too tightly!) 5. Add plenty of water. 6. Add some mulch but don't let it touch the trunk! 7. Done! Bare root plansQuite simply it's a plant that comes without any soil attached to the roots (usually washed out) which makes it lighter and saves you from soil-borne diseases from its original location.1. Dig a hole big enough for the ball. 2. Remove the strapping, strings and wire (although you may leave some burlap behind.) 3. Thoroughly soak the root ball with water. 4. Fill in the soil and add water as you go. 5. Finish with a layer of mulch similar than with bare root plants. 6. Done! |
