Flowers and Fruit Trees :

• Plant immediately upon recieve. Trees soak in water for 2 minutes.
• Immediately remove ALL fruit and half of the leaves. All Plants should be grown in containers. The size of the pot depends on the size of the tree. For example, a 3' tree with a 1 inch truck should not be planted in a pot larger than a 5 gallon pot.
• All pot must have holes at the bottom for water to leak out.
• Use only Potting Soil. Preferably without an added substance like manure.
• Cover the entire plant (i.e. all foliage including any branches and the trunk) with clear plastic. It keeps the moisture from escaping.
• After three weeks, slowly expose the plant to the outside by slowly ripping apart the plastic over a two week period.
• DO NOT FERTILIZE! You will not need to fertilize until at least one month after establishment.
• Place newly planted trees in a shady area. Preferably half sun.
• Water thoroughly every other day in summer and once a week in winter. If plant has no leave, water once a week.

  Since most plants are bare-root* (*does not have any roots), it will take about a month for the plants to be established*(*grow new leaves and roots). Once established, plants maybe planted in ground (if weather permits).
