Anticipating the Bare-Root Season

Starting December through March, it's bare-root season at Christianson’s and that means savings on trees and shrubs for your garden, including fruit, flowering and shade trees, hydrangeas, lilacs, cane fruit, and herbaceous edibles such as raspberries, asparagus, and rhubarb.

Our tips for successful bare-root planting

• Timing is Key: Plant during the dormant season, late December through March.

• Prepare the Soil: Ensure the planting site has well-draining soil. Break up any compacted soil and add organic matter, like planting compost, if needed.

• Dig a Proper Hole: Dig a hole wide enough to accommodate the roots without bending heavily or crowding. The depth should be sufficient for the roots to spread comfortably.

• Soak the Roots: Before planting, soak the bare roots in water for a few hours to rehydrate them.

• Positioning: Place the tree in the center of the hole with the roots spread out. Position it at the same depth it was grown in the nursery.

• Backfill Carefully: Fill the hole with soil, packing it gently to eliminate air pockets. Water as you fill to help settle the soil.

• Mulch: Apply a layer of mulch around the tree to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.

• Watering: Provide ample water after planting and regularly thereafter. Deep watering is essential for establishing a strong root system.

• Stake if Necessary: If the tree is top-heavy or in a windy location, consider staking it to provide support until the roots are established.

Remember to follow specific guidelines for the tree species you're planting, as different trees may have unique requirements.
