How to Grow Gift Trees
Growing a gift tree is a lot like planting any other type of tree. The main difference is that you should be highly selective in choosing a planting location for a gift tree. Find an area where your gift tree can stand out as a prized garden focal point. Try planting your gift tree in an open lawn space where it can attract attention. Or try situating your gift tree so you can see it through the window of one of your popular indoor living spaces. In either case, you and your guests will have a full view of your gift tree and plenty of opportunities to appreciate it.
