Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball, position the tree at its original depth, and backfill with soil, firming gently to remove air pockets. Water regularly during the first season to establish a healthy root system, keeping soil consistently moist but never waterlogged. Once settled, water during dry periods while avoiding excessive moisture that can cause root problems. In late winter or early spring, remove any dead or damaged branches to maintain the tree's natural shape, and apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring following package guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":45814244638906,"sku":"30816","price":359.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/gold-drift-norway-spruce-tree.jpg?v=1777509594","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/gold-drift-norway-spruce-tree","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
