Fertilizing generally is not necessary until the tree begins recovering from the shock of transplanting and establishes itself in its new home. This usually takes at least a year to occur, but in some instances, the tree may need some fertilization. Some practical guidelines for newly planted trees:
- Mulching is highly beneficial to your newly planted tree
- Watering is key and must be done properly
- Pruning of newly and recently planted trees is recommended but must be done properly and according to standards
- Staking, guying and using tree wraps may or may not be needed, depending on the planting site and the tree selected
