Dig a hole slightly wider than the root ball and plant the tree at the same depth it was growing in the container. Backfill the soil and water thoroughly to settle the roots. Apply mulch around the base to help retain moisture while keeping mulch away from the trunk. Water regularly during the first few growing seasons, especially during dry periods, until the tree becomes established. Once mature, the tree typically relies on natural rainfall. Prune during winter or early spring while the tree is dormant to remove dead or crossing branches and encourage healthy structure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"3-4 feet","offer_id":45768125874362,"sku":null,"price":299.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5-6 feet","offer_id":45768125907130,"sku":null,"price":419.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6-7 feet","offer_id":45768125939898,"sku":null,"price":554.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/1971892964608927201_027018dd-238b-4e64-93ad-291ae678bd53.jpg?v=1775889881","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/red-sunset-maple-tree-acer-rubrum-franksred-red-sunset","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
