Best Time to Plant a Tree
Because Revolution Road only plant balled, burlap-wrapped, and container trees, we are able to successfully plant your tree anytime throughout the growing season.
We’ll show you how and help you properly care for your newly planted tree, including watering instructions and watching for transplant shock.
Ideally, we aim to give your tree’s root system a chance to become established in your yard before temperatures become too extreme.
Ensure Proper Tree Planting
When planting either a small tree or a more mature container tree, you must take care to follow the proper steps for planting to ensure your tree survives and thrives in its new home, including:
Checking for and marking underground utilities.
Digging the planting hole at an optimal depth and width.
Planting trees at the proper height, with trunk flare visible.
Properly straightening, staking, and tying trees.
Removing packaging and filling the hole firmly.
Adding mulch around the tree
Caring for Your Newly Planted Tree
Planting a new tree is just the beginning. You must care for your new tree by keeping the soil moist at all times but not waterlogged.
A soaker hose placed at the base of the tree works well for watering your newly planted tree.
Your local tree pros at Revolution Road will plant the new trees and plants according to ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) specifications.
We will provide advice on watering and maintenance for your specific location to promote your new plants’ health and long-term growth.
