Top Tips
Newly planted conifers need regular watering to prevent browning - once established they are drought proof.
Remove weeds as soon as they appear and mulch well to reduce water loss.
Care Guide
Planting advice for your conifer collection
- Water your potted plant well.
- Dig a hole a little deeper and 3 x wider than the nursery pot.
- Add a soil conditioner such as well-rotted manure to the earth removed from the hole if necessary.
- Remove the plant from its pot and tease out a few of the roots.
- Sprinkle on some Root grow to help establish a sound root system.
- Place your plant in the hole at the same level at the pot.
- Refill the hole with the earth removed (backfilling).
- Firm in the soil with your heel, avoiding the root ball.
- Water well and mulch around the base of the plant with a collar, compost, gravel, bark etc.
Pruning
- No pruning is required although you can clip to retain height from spring to late summer, just avoid cutting into old wood.
- If your plant gets too tall for where you have planted it, clip the top to keep it at the required height.
