Place the plant in the hole so that it is sitting at or
above the same depth that it was previously growing (Use soil mark on trunk as

Fill the hole with amended soil. Pack firmly, soak it
with water and allow to settle. Add additional soil if needed.
Add mulch to conserve water and control weeds. Keep well
watered until plant is established.
Established Plants:
Add a ½ to 1“of Espoma Organic Mushroom Compost Blend on the
soil surface around the plant. Water thoroughly.
