These plants are lifted from the nursery field when dormant, and sent to you in late autumn or spring for planting. Planted soon after delivery, bare root plants establish quickly and enjoy a strong start in the garden come spring. Dig holes wide enough and deep enough to lay out the roots. Fill the hole and tread down the planting soil to knock out air pockets. Water well to settle. Apply a mulch to protect roots from cold temperatures. If conditions prevent immediate planting, set roughly into loose soil or a pot of compost (‘heeling in’) to protect the roots. Set these at the same level as they were in the nursery field – you should see a soil line at the base of the stem. Stake trees, taller shrubs and roses to prevent root disturbance.
