Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball but equally deep, then plant and backfill with nutrient-rich soil. Apply mulch around the base to insulate roots, and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets. Water deeply twice weekly during the first three years as the tree establishes itself. Once mature, provide supplemental watering only during extended drought periods. Pruning is unnecessary; if desired for size control, prune only during dormancy to avoid excessive sap bleeding.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"2-3 ft.","offer_id":45814352183482,"sku":"16445","price":323.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/dakota-pinnacle-birch.jpg?v=1777510114","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/dakota-pinnacle-birch","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
