How Do We Plant the Tree?
\n\n
\n
Ensure the hole is the right size -\n\n
\n
shou ld not be deeper than the height of the bucket
\n
hole should be wider than the 7-Gallon Bucket so it is not tight
\n
\n
\n
Put tree in t he hole\n
\n
make sure it is VERTICAL
\n
back fill with dirt form hole
\n
Stake the trees (Stakes &\; Rope)
\n
\n
\n
Spread included mulch if provided by your municapality< /span>
\n
Water tree (5 Gallons is plenty)
\n
\n\n
\;
\n\n
Here are some more details about the Sycamores/Planetrees\, as we received some questions ab out moving \;trees from the meeting point to their planting destination:
\n\n
\n
7 Gallon \;Trees will be 6-8 feet tall &ndash\; a pick up truck or f lat bed truck with walls would be great to move a \;tree \;or \;trees
\n
SUVs would not be good for transporting \;trees\, as there&r squo\;s a high likelihood of damaging the \;tree \;to make them fit
\n
7 Gallon \;Tree \;will weigh around 30-50 pounds dependin g on when it was watered
\n
Containers on the \;tree \;ba ll must be removed before the \;tree \;ball is placed in the hole &ndas h\; bring a utility knife to cut away the container
