Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Remove the stake and ties at planting, as these are only for shipping. Choose a site with well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade for best results. Spread a 3" thick layer of mulch three feet around the tree, pulling the mulch back a few inches from the trunk.

2. Watering: Water regularly during the first year to establish a deep, extensive root system. Once established, it is drought-tolerant but will appreciate occasional watering during dry spells.

3. Pruning: Bosnian Pines do not usually need pruning. Dead or damaged wood can be removed at any time.

4. Fertilizing: Fertilize in spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. Avoid excessive fertilization, as this can encourage rapid growth that may affect its compact form.
