Plant
evergreens
in the spring
There are many different
kinds of evergreens suitable for
home gardens and landscaping.
However, before purchasing
plants select varieties according
to their preference for sun or
shade. While most evergreens
do best in a sunny location,
there are some,' such as the
Japanese Yew, that tolerate par-
tially shaded areas. Winter har-
diness of your selections should
also be considered.
Adequate drainage is one pre-
requisite for good growth of any
evergreen, says R.F. Gomme,
horticultural specialist. 'All
stones, roots, and debris should
be removed to a depth of 18
inches. Adding a mixture of
garden loam, manure and peat-
moss will help improve the soil
structure.
When you are ready to plant,
dig the hole at least twice the
diameter of the root ball and
about one and a half times as
deep. Partially fill the hole with
loam and set the tree in place.
Shovel loam around the ball and
firm the soil with your heel.
When the hole is two=thirds full,
soak the soil thorrughly, then
add the remainder of the loam.
It is not necessary to remove
the burlap from around the roots,
since it has been specially treated
to rot away in a few months.
Mounding the soil around the
base of the evergreen will com-
pensate for any settling of the
soil. However, it is a good
idea to leave a shallow ditch
around the plant to hold rain-
water.
By planting your evergreens`
now, they will have a good
chance to establish themselves
before the hot summer, weather
sets in.
