SHRUB PLANTING TIPS: ● Dig your hole two times the width and 6” deeper than the container. ● Plant Media: topsoil, peat moss and leaf compost ● Water the plant 3x the day you install the plant. Continue watering every third day for the next month (rain or shine). ● When you water, use Root Stimulator (for the first few watering). This will promote root growth and help maintain moisture within the hair roots of your new plant.

SHRUB & TREE CARE TIPS: ● Every spring work fresh leaf compost into the soil around shrubs. The compost will help with soil retention as well as adds micronutrients to the soil. ● Fertilize the shrubs with a time-release fertilizer in spring and mid summer (Sustane Fertilizer) ● For evergreens - after the first growing season it is recommended to fertilize your evergreen shrub or tree with a systemic fertilizer and insecticide. ● For evergreens, Fertilome Triple Action is a great product to use to battle insect problems that commonly occur in ​ ​ evergreens. This is an all-natural product; the active ingredient is Neem Oil. · Most deciduous shrubs can be trimmed back either after a few good frosts in fall (usually late October), in early spring or after it is done flowering. Please talk with a JJ’s Acres Garden Center professionals to find out when your specific shrubs should be trimmed.
