When is the Best Time to Plant Holly Trees?
Any time, as long as the ground isn’t frozen. However, the best time to plant your tree is when your holly has enough time to get those roots established before it is exposed to high heat. Therefore, for the best results, plant your tree in cooler seasons like the fall or spring.
How to Plant Holly Trees
When planting your Holly Tree, it is important that you pick a spot that gets at least 6 to 8 hours of full sunlight per day and has well-drained soil. Hollies can thrive in partial shade as well. Just make sure that the tree gets at least 3 to 6 hours of early morning or afternoon sun. Afterwards, dig a hole twice the size of the root ball.
How and When to Prune Holly Trees
Inspect your tree for any intersecting, damaged, diseased, or dead branches. Once you find the branches you’re going to prune, gradually cut them off starting from the bottom of the tree and work your way up. The best time to prune your tree is during the winter, when the tree is dormant, because hollies grow on new wood.
In order for your tree to thrive at its best, you should prune your tree since it can help to strengthen the roots, treat diseases, and encourage production, too.
