Abstract
THE few minutes spent in planting a tree or shrub properly can be the most important moments of its life.
A little time can mean the difference between a vigorous and a weak root system, and a tree is only as good as its roots. Protection of the roots before planting is also important. Bare-rooted trees need more attention than those in a hessian-wrapped root ball or those growing in a container.
