Planting & Care
Dig a hole at least three times wider than the root ball and plant so the top of the root ball sits level with the ground. Water thoroughly after planting and apply a 2-inch mulch layer around the base. Once established, your Sky Tower tolerates drought well but will benefit from weekly watering during extended dry spells or intense summer heat. Check soil moisture 3 inches down to determine watering needs, and watch for wilting or yellowing leaves as signs your tree needs water. Fertilize young trees in spring to encourage vigorous growth during the first few years.
