Hand-water all plants everyday for the first 2 weeks (AT LEAST 15 seconds on each plant)
Refer to the Tree Care Card for all trees 15″ and over
Calibrate your sprinklers for each area by placing a tuna can on the ground. When it is full (1″) then you have given that area enough water. Please watch and make sure that all plants are being covered!!
After hand-watering for 2 weeks, please set sprinklers for every other day for 2 weeks, then every three days for 3 weeks, then you can resume your regular irrigation schedule for your new plants (not including trees). If you notice wilt in between watering, check the soil-if it is dry then hand-water!
All plants have been given a root stimulator and slow-release fertilizer. Please fertilize all shrubs, trees, and greenery 3 x’s per year: Early Spring, Late Summer, and Mid Fall. Flowering perennials and annuals can be fed a higher phosphorus fertilizer every month, or as needed.
Prune all plants in early spring (can cut up to 1/3 off). You can selectively prune throughout the year. Warning: Prune lightly in the summer when plants are under stress. Fall Pruning will not produce much new growth until spring!!
Due to the amended soil, increased watering, and fertilizer. HAND weeding will be necessary about 1 month after installation.
If there are any concerns or questions regarding your new plants, please contact us immediately at 407-896-5951 or e-mail pictures to Allison at palmersgarden@aol.com
