When you’re planning your planting scheme, it can be really helpful to seek professional guidance. This is because experts can offer advice on the species that will thrive best in your garden’s specific conditions. A crucial factor in selecting the right plants and trees is your soil type. To understand your situation better, a professional might ask whether your property has clay, sandy, light, chalky, or wettish soil, and if you experience standing water at any point during the year. These factors are key to determining the plants that will thrive in your landscape! Professionals can also provide expert advice on installation, ensuring your new plants get off to the best possible start.
Recommendations
We understand that choosing the right trees involves many considerations. That’s why we don’t offer general recommendations on our website. Instead, we believe in providing personalised guidance to help you accurately assess your specific location. This one-on-one support is a significant advantage of purchasing trees from an experienced and independent nursery like ours.
Even the healthiest trees can face challenges if planted in an unsuitable environment. To help you avoid the potentially costly error of placing a tree in a less-than-ideal spot, we highly recommend discussing your plans with one of our experts.
Installation
To help ensure your new tree gets the best start, it’s important that it is correctly staked and tied for support during establishment. While a landscaper can certainly handle this for you, we’ve also created a helpful video guide that demonstrates the best professional techniques for planting and staking your tree yourself!
This instructional video covers everything you need to know, from digging the right size hole and improving the soil quality to properly staking and tying your tree, and understanding the correct amount of watering after planting.
We hope this helped to clarify why understanding your soil type is crucial before planting, as well as highlighting the importance of proper installation techniques. To ensure your trees thrive from the start, we always recommend seeking professional advice prior to planting. Please do not hesitate to contact us via email or phone. We are always happy to offer friendly, no-pressure advice on selecting the ideal tree species for your specific requirements!
