These two essential nutrients, phosphorus, and potassium are needed in relatively large amounts when the tree is young. However, after it reaches maturity, it usually requires only nitrogen. A young tree will benefit immensely when these two nutrients are applied at the planting time! These two nutrients will help Because they move slowly through the soil. Applying them to the soil surface will take years before they reach the roots of a tree. Apply Tree Starter Fertilizer when planting your tree by mixing it in the soil and placed back in the hole. Performing a soil test will tell you the exact amount needed. This 2lb is enough to plant 8 to 12 trees. Performing a soil test and doing the math for the hole you will dig is best. However, if you do not perform a soil test for the area you are planting, I suggest using about 3oz in a 2-3’sq x 2′ deep hole.

These two essential nutrients, phosphorus, and potassium are needed in relatively large amounts when the tree is young. However, after it reaches maturity, it usually requires only nitrogen. A young tree will benefit immensely when these two nutrients are applied at the planting time! Because they move slowly through the soil, applying them to the soil surface may take years before they reach a tree’s roots. When planting your tree, apply Tree Starter Fertilizer by mixing this in the soil as you place the soil back in the hole. Performing a soil test will tell you the exact amount needed. This 2lb is enough to plant 8 to 12 trees. Apply no more than .75 oz per Sq Ft.
Soil health is essential when looking to establish an orchard. Trees planted in nutrient-deficient soil will take much longer to develop fruit. Soil fertility trumps everything when looking for trees to bear fruit at a young age. Perform a soil test and apply per the soil test. If your not going to perform a soil test as a rule of thumb apply 3oz to a 24” x 24” x 18” or 6oz to a 48” x 48” x 18” hole. An acre is 43,560 sq ft. If you performed a soil these, you could essentially do the math per tree/hole your planting

Returns: We have been shipping plants around the country for quite some time now. We provide
healthy live plants. We take every effort to ensure that your plants are packed in a way that
maintains that health as they arrive to you. We can not be responsible for how plants are handled
when they leave our care or are handled by customers.
Tree care: If you plant your tree up on high dry ground they may need watered through the first
summer, if you plant too low and wet your trees may drown. Be careful of the herbicide you may
use around the tree (read the label). I want you and your trees to succeed but if you don't tube or
cage them the deer will eat your tree that night.
Hours: We do not keep regular hours. If you would like to visit the nursery, just call, send a
message or email. Anyone is more than welcome.
Selected pickup dates: Trees can be picked up in the spring as soon as you can dig in your soil.
Trees need to be picked by the end of April. Before picking up, please contact us letting us know
when you are planning to come so we can have your order ready for you when you arrive.
Shipping: When buying grafted trees, depending on the amount of trees you order will determine
the size box the trees will be shipped in. If you order 8 or fewer two-year-old trees, they will fit into a 66''x10''x10'' box. Ordering 9 to 16 two-year-old trees will fit into a 66''x15''x14'' box. Ordering 16 or more two year old trees will fill into 2 or more boxes, depending on the total amount of trees bought. Trees may need to be professionally pruned to fit in these boxes. Ship dates will be selected by you before completing you order. We ship trees from early March to late April. You should select a ship date that is suitable for the location you are planting your trees. Trees will ship through UPS on Monday’s, Tuesday’s, and Wednesday’s.
You will receive an email notification when your trees ship. When trees arrive, plant as soon as possible. If you cannot, it
would be best to heal them into soil or store in a cool place not allowing roots to freeze but not
allowing the trees to become warm.
If Tree Tube products are the only items you purchase then they will ship as soon as the order is
received. You may have to select a ship date but I can assure you if you are just ordering tree
tubes they will ship immediately. If Tree Tube products are purchased with trees, then they will
ship with the trees.
Due to the cost of shipping there will be a minimum of 4 trees that have to be purchased in order
for checkout to occur. Due to phytosanitary regulations, we do not ship to California. We also do not ship chestnut trees to Washington, Florida or Oregon State. Trees will be packaged correctly to meet the shipping requirements for Idaho and all other states.
