Description

Our Tree Irrigation Kit allows your tree to be watered directly at the roots, aiding establishment and reducing water wastage. It is both easy to use and quick to install.

Simply water via the vented cap and the water will be dispersed to the root ball of the tree. To install, just pop into the ground before your tree and back fill as usual. The irrigation system includes an integral filter to prevent blockages. Please note, it should be used in conjunction with surface watering.

The medium irrigation kit will fit trees up to 250cm in height at time of planting and the large kit is suitable for trees over 250cm in height. We also stock container irrigation kits specially designed for trees planted into containers.

Planting Steps

1Preparation

Pot-grown plants can be planted at any time of year, whereas bare roots need to be planted between November and March.
Clear weeds and grass within a metre of the planting hole.
Dig a hole as deep as the root mass and twice as wide.
To help your plant establish more effectively, sprinkle Rootgrow in the hole.

2Planting

Gently loosen the roots and place into the planting hole.
Ensure the top of the plant's compost is flush with the level of the surrounding soil and the graft union or collar of the tree is above ground level.
Mix 50% of the original soil with 50% compost.
Fill in the hole, firming the soil gently.

3Last Steps

Water generously around the base of the plant.
If you are planting either a single stem tree or mature standard tree, we recommend adding a staking kit and rabbit guard.
