Planting and care

To install, work your soil to a depth of 20 cubic cm, crumbling the soil well and adding a base amendment such as dried blood or crushed horn at the bottom of the planting hole. Position your young plant, freed from its pot, by covering the top of the root ball with 3 cm (1in) of soil, fill in and water generously to eliminate air pockets. If planted in dry weather, it is necessary to water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate rooting.
