Planting: Before planting, it’s important to choose a location with enough space to accommodate the size of your Elm. Furthermore, your DannaSpire should be planted in a sunny spot (6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day) with well-drained soil. After you’ve selected a suitable location, dig a hole that’s at least two to three times wider than your tree’s root ball. Once you’ve placed your tree, backfill its soil, tamp down to avoid air pockets, and lastly, water to help establish its roots. Following planting, simply water and monitor – that’s it. No fertilizer or pruning needed. 2. Watering: Water your tree regularly during the growing season (approximately one thorough watering each week is fine). But if you’re not sure when to water your tree, simply check its surrounding soil, down to around 2 or 3 inches. If the soil in this area is dry, it’s time to water.
