The ONE Tree You Should Pick If You Want an Evergreen Look

After 60 years in the garden, I believe everyone should have at least one tree. But planting one is a lifetime commitment, you have to get it right from day one.

In this video I show you four different sized trees for different types of gardens, then show you how to plant a container grown tree. I will take you through how to choose the right site, dig the correct size hole, add the right elements to help it grow and plant it properly. I also show you how to fix a stake correctly to ensure the tree survives in windy conditions.

Follow these simple steps and your tree will have the perfect start in life!
