f. Mound excess soil to form small dam wall around newly planted tubestock
(especially on down slope side), to hold water.
g. Water plant well (>2litres if pOSSible)
h. Apply approx. 100mm depth of mulch to 1m dia. around base of new planting leaving
approx. 30mm gap around stem. Mulch to be weed free and ideally well composted. TERRA-FIRMA
