If you have any questions, please call us at <strong><a href=\"tel:8003354769\">800-335-GROW<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Are drainage, climate, and exposure (sun, shade &amp; wind) conditions appropriate for the plants being installed? If you&#8217;re unsure, please ask us for advice.<\/li>\n<li>Is the area clear of all stumps, ground cover, and debris?<\/li>\n<li>Clearly mark all <em>known<\/em> low-voltage lighting, lamp post, dog fence and irrigation lines if they&#8217;re in the planting area.<\/li>\n<li>Have you staked the area to clearly identify where the plants go? Write the name of each plant on each stake.<\/li>\n<li>Is the planting area easy to find? Are all gates unlocked? Can the area be reached with a wheelbarrow?<\/li>\n<li>Do you have a dog? Make sure to notify us, if so.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>New Tree &amp; Shrub Care<\/h2>\n<h3>Watering<\/h3>\n<p>After planting, trees and shrubs should be watered thoroughly, then water when soil is dry to the touch \u2013 about 1.5-inches or knuckle deep \u2013 usually every 2 days. Check regularly and only water when necessary. Too much water or lack of water are top reasons plants fail to grow. Water more frequently during long periods of hot and dry weather. Try to water before noon during warm weather. It might not be necessary to water when a week\u2019s rainfall is at least 1-inch.<\/p>\n<p>If plants are in clay soil, be sure they do not sit in water.<\/p>\n<p>To encourage a deep root system, let a slow trickle of water soak into the soil at the plant base for 10 to 15 min.<\/p>\n<h3>Mulch<\/h3>\n<p>Keep the soil cultivated and grass-free around trees, or mulch with 1 to 2-inch of organic material such as pine, hardwood, cedar or cypress bark; or soil conditioner.<\/p>\n<h3>Fertilizing<\/h3>\n<p>We recommend Bio-tone Plant Starter at planting time, which should be sufficient for the first year.<\/p>\n<h3>Protection<\/h3>\n<p>Trunk-wrap young trees the first winter season to prevent sun-scald. Remove wrap in warm weather. Evergreens<\/p>\n<h3>Sod &amp; Soil Removal<\/h3>\n<p>We will remove an area large enough to accommodate the root ball of the plant. Creating beds and berms is not included. Whenever possible, we will incorporate excavated soil into the landscape, however, off-site removal may incur disposal fees.<\/p>\n<h3>Plant Removal<\/h3>\n<p>The planting area needs to be ready to plant in, with the exception of sod removal. Brush and other debris must be removed prior to the scheduled planting day.<\/p>\n<p>Small shrubs may be removed at the time of planting\u00a0 for a fee: $75 per person\/per hour plus $100 for off-site disposal. (One hour minimum charge. Advanced planning and payment for removals is required.)<\/p>\n<h3>100% Satisfaction Guarantee<\/h3>\n<p>Planting price includes one-time replacement of plants and re-planting of equal or lesser value with purchase of soil amendments.<\/p>\n<h3>Planting Fees<\/h3>\n<table class=\"table-striped\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Container Size<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: center; width: 130px;\">Fee Per Plant<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Up to #1<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$13*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#1.5<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$19.50*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#2<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$26*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#3<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$39*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#5<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$65*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#6<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$78*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#7<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$91*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#10<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$130*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#12<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$156*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#15<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$195*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#16<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$208*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#20<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$260*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#25<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$325*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$390<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#45<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$585<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#60<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$780<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Balled &amp; Burlap Plants<\/h3>\n<table class=\"table-striped\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Approximate Diameter of the Root Ball<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: center; width: 130px;\">Fee Per Plant<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>12-14&#8243;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$130*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>15-17&#8243;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$195*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>18-19&#8243;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$260*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>20-24&#8243;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$325*<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>25-28&#8243;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">$455<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Tree Staking<\/h3>\n<table class=\"table-striped\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Price Per Tree<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center; width: 130px;\">$30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><em>Every deciduous tree #12 and larger gets stake charge automatically.
