Caring for newly planted trees and shrubs in the first year
Iowa State University extension horticulturist Ben Vance stresses careful watering and weed control for newly planted trees and shrubs. Water weekly with 1 to 1.5 inches of rain, avoid overwatering, mulch to conserve moisture, and wrap deciduous transplants with nursery paper or other materials for sun and frost protection. Staking aids establish tall trees, with careful protection for trunks from wire damage.
