How to Plant and Care for Red Flowering Trees
The wide variety of trees you can plant gives you many options to select from. However, that variety makes plant care a bit more complicated. Before you plant any species, make sure you have taken time to study the conditions and care that the plant needs.
Choose a planting location that includes a suitable amount of daily sunlight and has the ideal degree of soil moisture. Once you find a good place, dig a hole with a generous width and depth that matches the root ball’s height.
After planting, provide plenty of water for your new flowering tree so it can overcome the shock of the planting process. At this stage, prune any branches or stems that are dead, broken, or diseased.
Regarding ongoing care, you must give your red flowering trees fertilizer. Each plant calls for a different type of fertilizer and a distinct fertilization frequency. You will want to continue with regular pruning. In most cases, removing spent blooms at specific parts of the year will cause more flowers to emerge in the next season.
If you are planting red flowering trees that bloom in the early spring, you may want to consider providing wind protection. In some instances, a late-season winter wind can damage the newly-emerged flower petals. Shelter from wind goes a long way in protecting the blooms that give red flowering trees their exceptional ornamental value.
