About this detail

The shrub rootball sits within a planting pit sized at twice the rootball diameter and one-and-a-half times its depth, with the rootball crown positioned slightly above the finish grade prior to mulch application. All binding materials are cut and removed from the top and sides of the rootball, circling roots are roughed up and extended outwards, and plant fertilizer tabs are installed within the planting soil. The planting pit bottom features a one-inch minimum compacted planting soil layer at ninety percent maximum dry density over native soil. A three-inch mulch layer is applied while kept away from woody stems, and a soil berm forms a depressed watering basin around the perimeter.
