arborvitae rootball
i recently planted a 6 foot emerald green arborvitae and realized
that i left the burlap wrap on the rootbal. there were so many new roots that i didnt see the burlap until i noticed it on a second emerald green that i planted...is leaving the burlap on a bad thing? also, should i wrap the foliage in burlap this winter since they are still settling in? what about adding cow manure...? thanks, cj in s.e. michigan |

Also be certain it's real burlap, many nurseries are now moving towards synthetic/plastic burlap |
