Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball, position the tree so the root ball sits level with the ground surface, and mulch around the base. Water regularly during the first year to establish a strong root system; mature trees need water mainly during extended dry periods. Light pruning in early spring can enhance density and remove any dead or damaged growth. Apply balanced slow-release fertilizer once in spring to support vigorous development, but skip late-season feeding to prevent tender new shoots before winter arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":45814244245690,"sku":"30768","price":188.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/baby-blue-eyes-colorado-spruce-tree.jpg?v=1777509589","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/baby-blue-eyes-colorado-spruce-tree","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
