Arnold Tuliptree Tree

1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location with well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade. Dig a hole that is twice the width of the root ball and just as deep. Place the tree in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface. Fill in around the root ball with soil and water thoroughly.

2. Watering: Water your Arnold Tuliptree regularly, especially during the first few years to establish a strong root system. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Once established, it is moderately drought-tolerant but will thrive with consistent moisture.

3. Pruning: Prune in late winter to early spring to shape the tree and remove any dead or damaged branches. This will enhance airflow and help maintain its healthy growth. Avoid heavy pruning, as this tree naturally develops a pleasing form.

4. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to support healthy growth and blooming. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for the appropriate amount based on your tree's size.
