Give The Gift That Never Stops Giving

Why not give your friends or family the gift that never stops giving, a tree? It is a creative and thoughtful way to not just give something to your loved one, but to give back to the planet. So, the next time there’s an occasion to give, visit your local nursery and gift a tree!

DIRECTIONS

  1. Rake mulch around the area where you’ll be planting the tree.

  2. Dig a hole 2 x the diameter of the tree roots—start a small hole and gradually dig a wider, deeper hole.

  3. Make sure the soil at the bottom of the hole is packed tightly.

  4. Roll the tree into the hole, pack soil around the roots making sure there are no air pockets.

  5. Cut the burlap and unwrap root cover, pack soil around tree and water.
