PLANTING YOUR TREES

It is really important to prepare the site carefully.  The planting site needs to be free-draining.  If it is liable to water logging or impeded drainage then the drainage MUST be improved before planting. There are a number of ways of doing this and a great source of advice can be found on the RHS website.

Staking

Support the tree firmly, using one or two stakes driven well in, avoiding damage to the roots. (The stakes may need to be at an angle). Secure with a straining bar or pliable tree ties, being careful to avoid chafing or other damage to the bark.  You can purchase stakes, ties and buckles from us.
