Dig a planting hole twice the width of the root ball and equal to its depth, then backfill and water thoroughly to settle the roots. Apply 3–4 inches of mulch around the base to retain moisture. Water consistently during the first year (once or twice weekly, checking soil moisture 3 inches down), and water container-planted trees more frequently. After establishment, the tree requires minimal supplemental watering. In early spring, apply a balanced fertilizer like 5-10-5 around the root zone, and prune any dead or damaged branches in late winter.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"3-4 ft.","offer_id":45814321971386,"sku":"12813","price":566.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/avondale-redbud-tree.jpg?v=1777510028","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/avondale-redbud-tree","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
