Deciduous Tree Planting

Materials

About this detail

The root ball rests on undisturbed soil inside a planting pit sized twice the diameter of the root ball with twelve inches minimum clearance on all sides and a depth of two feet. Twine, rope, wire, and burlap are cut and removed from the top and sides of the root ball prior to backfilling, and any wire baskets are cut and removed after setting. The root ball is installed one inch above the finish grade. Backfill consists of a soil mix. A mulch ring with a three-inch high water basin sits at the edge, maintaining a one-inch clear space from the trunk. Wood stakes and tree ties provide support and are designated for removal after one full year.
