If you're like most people, you want your newly planted trees to be
healthy and robust from the start.
But did you know there's a lot more to your fall tree planting project
than you may think?
From choosing the right species, to picking
the best location, to giving good aftercare,
our arborists also recommend this:
PLANT AT THE PROPER DEPTH.
Because tree roots require plenty of water,
oxygen and softer soil, it's important to
plant new trees properly. In fact, planting
right can help prevent 80 percent of tree
problems, including premature death.
The secret to proper planting? Plant trees so that the root flare
(where the trunk starts to bulge at the bottom) is level with, or
slightly above, soil surface. This helps ensure a healthy root system
with plenty of oxygenation.
