Planting & Care

Container grown specimens can be planted at any time of year provided the ground is not waterlogged or frozen. Dig a hole twice as wide & twice as deep as the root ball. If the soil is poor mix the extracted soil with equal amounts of compost & a handful of bone meal, which stimulates good root development. Tease out some of the roots from the root ball & place in the hole so that it is planted exactly the same depth as it was in the pot. Backfill the hole with the soil/compost mix & firm in with your heel to leave the plant vertical. Water well after planting. Summer planted specimens will need regular watering to stop them drying out for the first few months. Autumn & winter planted specimens will probably not need watering after planting
