Planting, good staking and aftercare are very important. Trees need a roomy planting pit, well forked over for good drainage and aeration. Incorporate planting compost with the backfill soil so the new root growth will have access to oxygen and base fertilisers combined with wetting agents to aid moisture retention in the summer.
It is most important to give newly planted trees a large circle of grass free soil around the base and maintain it for a minimum of two years. Tree need leg-room to re-establish their root system without the competition for moisture and nutrients caused be grass oe weeds.
