Tips On Planting Trees With the Duplin County area tree day coming up, a lesson on tree-planting may be helpful. Phil Den linger, Duplin County assistant agricultural ex | tension agent. suggests ' that by following seven simple steps you should n't have any trouble with the survival of your trees. 1. Location of your tree should be the first thing you should con sider. Although these trees look small now, you must remember that they are trees, so you should give them plenty of room | to grow. 2. Digging your hole is the next step. This may sound easy, but you must remember to dig it large enough to accommodate all of the roots without cramping them up. 3. Add soil amend ments to the soil that you just dug out. This is especially important to , help your trees get a good ' healthy start. Add a good compost such as peat - moss. Be sure this material is sufficiently broken down. By all means avoid fresh pine bark, pine needles or wood shavings. Another amendment you would want to add is a little bit of fertilizer. Approximately two tablespoons of 10-10-10 per tree is plentv. 4. Place the tree in the hole and refill with soil making sure there are now air pockets. When you get it 3/< filled, water thoroughly. Add the rest of the soil and tamp it in. 5. Now is where your pine bark or pine needles are important. Place 3 - 4 inces of either on top of the soil to help keep the roots from drying out. 6. With the dogwoods and the oaks, you may want to lightly prune the tops. The reason for this is because, when the trees were dug and transfered. some of the roots were lost or damaged. Pruning will offset this unbalance. 7. Finally, you may want to stake your tree to start it growing straight. When tying it to the stake be sure not to tie it too tight. You don't want to choke it off or damage the bark in any way. If you follow this and keep them watered this summer, you should have a beautiful tree for years to come. Good luck and enjoy your trees.
