If conditions prevent immediate planting, set roughly into loose soil or a pot of compost (‘heeling in’) to protect the roots. Apply a mulch to protect roots from cold temperatures. Tread down the planting soil to knock out air pockets. Set out in prepared soil in holes wide enough and deep enough to lay out the roots. They often look dead on arrival, but they are just resting in the dormant period and will establish quickly for a strong start in the garden come spring. These plants are lifted from the nursery field when dormant, and sent to you in late autumn or spring for planting. Fasten the tree to the stake using a tree tie, and water well. Plant fruit trees at their original soil level and firm them into the ground. Staking after planting may result in damage to the root ball. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the planting hole and drive the stake into the ground to support the tree.
