Bare Root Tree Planting Before Winter
- Thread starter arminius
- Start date
I can only speak about where I live (Scotland, UK). We have clay soil and we pocket planted all of our bare root fruit bushes, hedges, trees, roses etc. We did it in November over 3 years. 100% success rate. We haven't had a single failure.
Slit planting is (as far as I can tell) only ever recommended for hedges. But we do it with everything and it works every time. When we use the conventional approach (digging a big hole, digging in compost and amendments) we tend to get 50% losses.
