How to Plant Your Native Plants
Instructions for Planting in the Ground
1. Dig a hole at least two times wider than your plant's root ball, but no deeper than the height of the root ball.
- Plant a minimum of 36 to 72 inches apart to allow room for spread.
- Please refer to the design to assess if larger spacing is needed.
2. Loosen plants by gently massaging the sides of the container, then tipping upside down into your palm, being careful to not hold plants by their stems or disturb the root zone.
3. Cup the root mass in your hand and gently place it into the hole. Because container plants are usually grown in high organic soil mixes, we recommend adding organic matter to the backfill. Be sure to blend this into the backfill, using as much native soil as possible. Pat down soil around the plant base.
4. Add mulch to help retain moisture, taking care that the mulch does not touch plant stems, and water thoroughly. Two-three inches of mulch should be plenty.
