Bare Root Planting Instructions

• When to Plant: Plant in early spring while the tree is dormant.

• Site Selection: Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil and good air circulation.

• Soil Preparation: Loosen soil and amend with compost if needed; ideal soil pH is 6.0–6.5.

• Dig the Hole: Dig a hole twice as wide as the root system and deep enough to spread roots naturally.

• Planting Depth: Set the tree so the graft union is 2–3 inches above the soil line.

• Backfilling: Fill the hole with native soil, gently firming to remove air pockets.

• Watering: Water deeply after planting and keep soil evenly moist during the first growing season.

• Mulching: Apply 2–3 inches of mulch around the base, keeping mulch several inches away from the trunk.

• Pruning: Prune at planting to remove damaged branches and establish an open-center structure.
