Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Remove the stake and ties at planting, as these are only for shipping. Choose a location with full sun or partial shade and ensure well-draining soil. Redbuds benefit from afternoon shade in warmer zones. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and plant at the same depth as it was grown in the pot. Spread a 3-inch thick layer of mulch three feet around the tree, pulling the mulch back a few inches from the trunk.
2. Watering: During the first growing season, water slowly and deeply every 2ā3 days to establish a strong root system. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but not soggy. After establishment, water once weekly during hot, dry periods to keep the tree healthy.
3. Pruning: Light pruning is recommended to maintain shape and encourage growth. Prune in late winter to early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or crossing branches to promote air circulation.
4. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a slow-release, balanced fertilizer to support healthy growth. Follow the manufacturerās instructions for application rates, and avoid over-fertilizing, which can harm the tree.
