The Planting Process

Prior to digging, tree branches are neatly tied up using our tree tyer. This will avoid breaking branches and will make transporting easier on the highway. 

During the summer and early fall tree is watered the day before digging the tree. Up to 120 gallons of water for a tree this size. 

Hole is first dug at customer's property using one of our truck spades. The soil plug is taken back to the tree farm and dropped in a hole from previous dug tree. 

Tree is dug using our truck mounted tree spade. This is a 90" tree spade. Root ball and tree will weigh over 10,000 pounds. We also have a 45" and a 65" truck mounted tree spade for smaller trees.

Tree is transported to its new home.

Tree is planted at its new home.

Tree is top dressed with triple mix soil and mulch.

Tree branches are untied and ready for a good drink of water.
