Preparing and Planting a Balled and Burlapped Tree

Balled and burlapped (B&B) and bareroot trees are available at specialty and wholesale nurseries, typically cost less than containerized trees, and, with good stock, proper preparation, and care can establish better than containerized trees. Their one disadvantage is that they must be planted in the dormant season. Bareroot trees, in particular, make identifying root defects easier since root defects in container-grown trees are harder to see. In this video, Liza Holmes provides recommendations on preparing and planting B&B and bareroot trees. Liza covers topics such as pruning prior to planting, planting tools, planting depth for grafted and non-grafted trees, soil amendments, and optimal planting methods. Liza Holmes is a Research Technician at the Bartlett Tree Research Lab in Charlotte, North Carolina.
