About this detail

The crown of the rootball is set one inch above the finish grade with the upper half of the burlap and all straps removed from the rootball. The planting hole has roughened sides cut into the compacted subgrade and is backfilled with planting soil per plans. Two two-inch by two-inch by eight-foot wood stakes are driven clear of the rootball to a minimum height of five feet six inches. A one-inch wide Chainlock or equal tree tie material loops around the tree at half height with one inch of slack for trunk growth, and is nailed or stapled to the stakes to hold them vertical. A layer of mulch is applied over the top per plans.
